  • 摘要:

    Introduction. Hemoptyses may be very often due to bronchiectases. Although these bleedings are usually spontaneously resolved recurrent and massive hemoptyses may vitally endanger a patient. Therefore, an urgent diagnosis and treatment of hemoptyses is required. Case report. A 56- year old patient was admitted to the hospital due to massive hemoptyses, presented with a non-homogenous shadowing, paracardially on the left. The chest Computerized Tomography finding delineated atelectasis of the lower left lobe and bronchiectases. Bronchoscopy sampling of the left lung airways provided the fresh blood. The multislice angiography and embolization of the bronchial arteries was carried out, entirely ceasing hemoptyses so the patient was discharged with no symptoms. On the control examination one month later, he was well, with normal radiological finding and inflammation markers. Conclusion. In our patient, the life-threatening bleeding due to inflamed bronchiectases was successfully resolved by bronchial arterial embolization, thus avoiding surgery.
