Abstrakt: Background: Nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) varies widely in clinical presentation, and some patients experience hemoptysis. Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is a treatment option for hemoptysis caused by NTM-PD. However, the association between post-BAE rebleeding risk and the presence of cavitary lesions has not been fully elucidated.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted on patients with NTM-PD who had undergone BAE at our institution. Patients were classified into Cavitary and Non-cavitary groups, and baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were compared.
Results: Among the 155 BAE cases between 2013 and 2023, 18 were included in the analysis, and four experienced rebleeding. The Cavitary group tended to have a higher rebleeding rate 24 months after BAE (37.5% vs. 10.0%, p = 0.27). Furthermore, the Cavitary group showed a significantly higher number of non-bronchial arteries involved (median number: 1.5 vs. 0.0, p = 0.02), a higher proportion of patients with a prior antibiotic treatment history (100% vs. 20%, p = 0.001), and longer duration from diagnosis to BAE (median year: 9.0 vs. 0.6, p = 0.02). The Kaplan-Meier curves showed a tendency for shorter rebleeding-free survival in the Cavitary group (p = 0.10).
Conclusions: Cavitary lesions in patients with NTM-PD may predict higher rebleeding rates after BAE. Further research with larger cohorts is needed to better understand rebleeding risk factors in BAE for NTM-PD.
