Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the long-term curative effect of bronchial artery embolization on massive hemoptysis in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods Bronchial arterial embolization with PVA grain and silk segment was performed in 42 cases of patients with hemoptysis of secondary pulmonary tuberculosis. Of them, 27 cases were bilateral pulmonary tuberculosis and 15 lateralized. The bloody bronchial arteries were confirmed by bronchial arteriography, and the PVA grains or silk segments were injected slowly into the target vessels until hemorrhage stopped. Results After one time embolization, hemoptysis stopped immediately in 34 cases, 7 cases still had little hemoptysis,and one case of hemorrhage was unable to be controlled. The short-term efficacious rate was 97.6%,and no severe complications occurred. Followed up 6 months to 7 years after treatment,24 cases were clinical cure,7 cases obviously effective,5 cases effective,and 6 cases recurrent.The long-term effective rate is 85.7%. Conclusion Embolization of bronchial artery with PVA grain and silk segment was a safe and effective method for controlling hemoptysis of pulmonary tuberculosis, and its combination with anti-tuberculosis treatment could consolidate the curative effect.
