Massive hemoptysis from pulmonary artery aneurysms.

Aneurysms of the pulmonary arteries are rare. The author reports a case of a patient with bilateral pulmonary artery aneurysms, in whom the nature of the lesions was not known. Pulmonary artery aneurysms should be included in the differential diagnosis of lung masses.

Endobronchial embolization with a silicone spigot as a temporary treatment for massive hemoptysis: a new bronchoscopic approach of the disease.

A 39-year-old-woman was treated successfully by a combination of endobronchial and bronchial artery embolization for massive hemorrhage originating from the posterior segment of the right upper lobe. Endobronchial embolization was performed using a silicone spigot placed via flexible bronchoscopy in order to prevent alveolar inundation preceding and during the time of bronchial artery embolization. Massive hemorrhage is a rare and severe condition associated with a high mortality that requires rapid intervention and management. We describe a case that emphasizes the efficacy of a multidisciplinary approach including the use of a new bronchoscopic technique.
