Evaluation of the bronchial arteries: normal findings, hypertrophy and embolization in patients with hemoptysis [PDF]

open access: yesInsights into Imaging, 2020
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.

The extent of enlarged bronchial arteries is not correlated with the development of reperfusion pulmonary edema after pulmonary endarterectomy in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
This study investigated whether dilated bronchial arteries are associated with reperfusion pulmonary edema in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

Structural alterations and markers of endothelial activation in pulmonary and bronchial arteries in fatal asthma [PDF]

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2019
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.

Prospective concordance of multidetector CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography in assessing bronchial artery morphology for hemoptysis embolization outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesLibyan Journal of Medicine
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]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2012
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).

Massive hemoptysis treated with embolization of an ectopic bronchial artery arising from the right thyrocervical trunk: a case report

open access: yesCVIR Endovascular, 2022
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 ...

Bronchial artery diameter in massive hemoptysis in cystic fibrosis

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Massive hemoptysis is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and advanced pulmonary disease. Hypertrophied bronchial arteries are understood to cause massive hemoptysis when rupturing.
