Bronchial arteries assessment by multi-detector computed tomography in cases of suspected chronic pulmonary thromboembolism and hemoptysis cases

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine
Background Bronchial arteries are typically small vessels measuring less than 2 mm proximally and less than 0.5 mm distally as they course toward the hila.

Control of massive hemoptysis via a “back-door” approach through the pulmonary artery

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2016
Bronchial artery embolization is an effective nonsurgical therapy for massive hemoptysis. Routine selection of the bronchial arteries from the aorta usually enables the interventionalist full interrogation and embolization of the culprit vascular ...

Massive hemoptysis. Selective embolization of bronchial artery-left pulmonary artery fistula. How would I approach it?

open access: yesREC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2023
HOW WOULD I APPROACH IT? This is the case of a massive hemoptysis requiring orotracheal intubation where the origin of the hemorrhage can be clearly identified in a fistula from the left bronchial artery—with fistulous trajectory—to the ...

Intercostal artery pseudoaneurysm in pulmonary tuberculosis – A rare cause of hemoptysis: A case report with review of the literature

open access: yesLung India, 2019
Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is one of the common causes of life-threatening hemoptysis, particularly in developing countries. Bronchial and pulmonary arteries are the major source of hemoptysis in pulmonary TB.

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Effect of pre-cardiac and adult stages of Dirofilaria immitis in pulmonary disease of cats: CBC, bronchial lavage cytology, serology, radiographs, CT images, bronchial reactivity, and histopathology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A controlled, blind study was conducted to define the initial inflammatory response and lung damage associated with the death of precardiac stages of Dirofilaria immitis in cats as compared to adult heartworm infections and normal cats.

Engineering Resatorvid‐Loaded Sub‐Microgels of Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate/Hyaluronic Acid to Treat Acute Lung Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents HAEP@Res sub‐microgels as a lung‐targeted delivery system integrating antioxidant activity with anti‐inflammatory therapy. The sub‐microgels demonstrate excellent biocompatibility, efficiently scavenge intracellular ROS, and downregulate pro‐inflammatory cytokines and genes in a Bleo‐induced ALI mouse model. These findings highlight
