Bronchial artery aneurysms and bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula [PDF]
European 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).

Bronchial artery diameter in massive hemoptysis in cystic fibrosis
BMC 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.

Thoracoscopic Bronchial Artery Resection for Multiple Bronchial Artery Aneurysms
Annals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021 We describe a 36-year-old asymptomatic female with multiple bronchial artery aneurysms (BAAs) and a bronchial artery (BA) to pulmonary artery (PA) fistula. She was treated with thoracoscopic BA resection without lobectomy in lieu of catheter embolization as first-line treatment.

Bronchial Artery Embolization [PDF]
Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2012 Hemoptysis represents a significant clinical entity with high morbidity and potential mortality. Most hemorrhages from a bronchial source arise in the setting of chronic inflammatory diseases. Medical management (in terms of resuscitation and bronchoscopic interventions) and surgery have severe limitations in these patient populations.

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2004 Massive hemoptysis is a frightening and potentially life-threatening clinical event. Patients with chronic inflammatory lung diseases such as bronchiectasis, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, and cystic fibrosis develop markedly hypertrophied and fragile bronchial arteries that may lead to clinically significant hemoptysis.
