Hemorrhage arising from the coronary sinus is very rare and can be lethal. It has historically been treated surgically. The present patient had coronary sinus rupture secondary to esophageal cancer and an abscess in the pericardium. Due to her poor general status, this patient was contraindicated for surgery and underwent endovascular therapy. The hemorrhage was treated by stent graft deployment and the patient was temporarily discharged. Two months later, CT showed that the stent graft was occluded by thrombosis. The patient died without hemorrhage 2.5 months thereafter.
