Abstract:
Objective To explore DSA findings curative measures and effects of bronchial arterial embolization(BAE)of bronchiectasis with massive hemoptysis. Methods 35 patients with massive hemoptysis due to bronchiectasis were performed selective bronchial arterial DSA and BAE referring to image data of chest plain film and CT. Embolic materials were polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)and/or gelatinum sponge particles. Curative effects were followed-up for 3 months to 3 years. Results ①DSA revealed bronchial artery as being the only abnormal vessel accounted for 74.3%,bronchial artry combined with nonbronchial systemic artery as 22.9% and only non-bronchial artery involved 2.9%. Abnormal vessel number was 1 -5(mean 1.8) per case. Direct and indirect bleeding sign was displayed as 25.7% and 100% respectively. ②Curative and embolization effects were shown as 61 target vessels of 34 patients being embolized and total effective rate reaching 85.3%; of which 16 cases were adopted super-selective technique,1 case was failure of stopping bleeding for two times within 3 days,4 cases recurred within 3 months and 2 cases recurred over 3 months; with recurrent rate of 20.6%,but no serious complications such as spinal cord injury. Conclusions DSA examination and selective BAE of bronchiectasis with massive hemoptysis could provide high positive angiographic features and reliable curative effect.
