Abstract:
This paper reported that bronchial artery embolization(BAE)had been used to treat 35 non tumorous patients who suffered from recurrent hemoptysis or acute severe hemoptysis after the given medical treatment was proved uneffective in 35 patients,7 patients had recurrent hemoptysis during 1.5～19 months postoperatively and were treated by BAE again,and there was no recurrence of hemoptysis during 7～34 months follow-up.Therefore, the authors considered that repeated BAE was still effective in treating recurrent hemoptysis.
