BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In patients with hemoptysis and a history of aortic surgery, the possibility of aortobronchopulmonary fistula must always be considered. The objective of this study was to report a rare case of hemoptysis due to aortobronchopulmonary fistula in the late postoperative period of aortic surgery. CASE REPORT Female patient, 34 years, surgical correction of aortic coarcta...
Hemoptysis is sometimes observed in lung cancer patients and can be life-threatening. We present a case with severe hemoptysis that was resolved by bronchial artery embolization (BAE) followed by surgery. The presence of necrotic tissue in the majority of the resected tumor and only few cancer cells was presumed to be from loss of bronchial artery blood flow. Although BAE is not a standard ther...
The purpose of this article is to report a case of hemoptysis occurring in combination with secondary spontaneous pneumothorax following chemical pleurodesis by talc. A Japanese male with cancer of renal pelvis was found with the left pneumothorax and multiple lung metastases. A computed-tomography scan revealed severe emphysema throughout the lungs. Talc pleurodesis was employed to arrest air ...
STUDY OBJECTIVES Massive hemoptysis is a life-threatening condition. Therapeutic strategies such as interventional angiography, surgery, and/or bronchoscopy have been applied in the clinical setting with variable results. We investigated the efficacy of bronchoscopy-guided topical hemostatic tamponade therapy (THT) using oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) mesh in the management of life-threat...
We describe a case with chronic bronchial foreign body presenting with recurrent hemoptysis mimicking a peripheral lung tumor, and the outcome of surgical resection. A 61-year-old female with recurrent hemoptysis had a peripheral nodule in the right lower lobe. A right bronchial arteriogram showed dilatation and hypervascularity in the nodule. Surgical removal of the nodule contained a small br...
A 50-year-old Taiwanese woman had a history of massive hemoptysis occurring every 6 months for the past 4 years. After each bout of hemoptysis, chest roentgenography would show diffuse alveolar infiltration of bilateral lungs, which would usually resolve within 7 days. Transbronchial biopsy revealed diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and hemosiderin-laden macrophage infiltration. Idiopathic pulmonary ...
The cause of bleeding in a patient with recurrent massive hemoptysis was not apparent after bronchoscopy and gross examination of the lobectomy specimen. Histologic submission of all major bronchi uncovered dilated, tortuous bronchial arteries just below the bronchial mucosa with sites of both current and healing arterial rupture. This bronchial arterial abnormality is common to several chronic...
Unresectable carcinoma of the lung has traditionally been recognized as a contraindication to surgery in massive hemoptysis. A 60-year-old man had massive hemoptysis. At surgery an unresectable neoplastic mass invading the mediastinum and great vessels was encountered. Subtotal resection was accomplished using a stapler (Autostapler). The margins of the bronchial and vascular staples were of ne...
Pulmonary vascular malformation is an unusual cause of hemoptysis. These abnormal vascular communications between pulmonary circulations or between pulmonary and systemic circulations can result in significant dyspnea, hemoptysis and hypoxemia. Pulmonary vascular malformations can take various forms. Here we present a case of an abnormal collection of thrombosed arteries and veins, without the ...
A 56-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a complaint of massive hemoptysis. Bronchoscopy revealed a tumor obstructed the orifice of the right lower lobe bronchus. The diagnosis of endobronchial schwannoma was made by broncho-fibroscopic biopsy. Schwannomas are benign tumors which originate from schwann cells. They rarely occur in the trachea or bronchus. On the other hand symptoms in...
