| Popis: |
While bronchial artery embolization is an established, safe, and effective treatment for massive hemoptysis from a variety of causes including cystic fibrosis, patients rarely require more than 2 angiography and embolization treatments during their lifetime. We present a rare case of massive, recurrent hemoptysis requiring a total of 22 angiography and embolization procedures over a period of 8 years, prior to the patient receiving a double lung transplant. Keywords: Hemoptysis, Cystic Fibrosis, Embolization, Bronchial Artery |
