Evaluation of the bronchial arteries: normal findings, hypertrophy and embolization in patients with hemoptysis [PDF]
The enlargement of the bronchial arteries occurs in a multitude of congenital and acquired diseases and is responsible for the majority of cases of hemoptysis.

Structural alterations and markers of endothelial activation in pulmonary and bronchial arteries in fatal asthma [PDF]
Background There is interest in better understanding vessel pathology in asthma, given the findings of loss of peripheral vasculature associated with disease severity by imaging and altered markers of endothelial activation.

Multidetector computed tomography angiography predicts the need for bronchial artery embolization in hemoptysis: A retrospective cohort study of 32 patients [PDF]
Background: Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is the standard intervention for severe hemoptysis, yet predicting which patients will require BAE remains challenging.

Bronchial artery embolization being the therapy of choice for massive hemoptyses in bronchiectases [PDF]
Introduction. Hemoptyses may be very often due to bronchiectases. Although these bleedings are usually spontaneously resolved recurrent and massive hemoptyses may vitally endanger a patient.

Posterior circulation infarction after bronchial artery embolization through bronchial to left subclavian artery shunt: a case report [PDF]
Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is an effective and minimally invasive procedure for managing massive or medically refractory hemoptysis. Despite its overall safety, BAE can be associated with complications, including nontarget embolization, with ...

Prospective concordance of multidetector CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography in assessing bronchial artery morphology for hemoptysis embolization outcomes [PDF]
Hemoptysis, often life-threatening in its massive form, is predominantly caused by bronchial artery pathology. Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is the established first-line intervention, yet the relationship between bronchial artery morphology and ...

Bronchial artery aneurysms and bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula [PDF]
A 57-year old woman presented with intermittent swallowing discomfort for 3 months. A computed tomography (CT) angiography showed a mediastinal bronchial arterial aneurysm, a widening of the bronchial artery tortuously, a right hilar mass and anomalous communication between the bronchial and pulmonary arteries (Fig. 1A–D).

Background Ectopic bronchial artery and non-bronchial systemic arteries may be the culprit vessels of hemoptysis. The main cause of clinical failure of bronchial artery embolization is incomplete embolization caused by the misidentification of the ...
