A Case of Bronchial Dieulafoy's Disease Presenting as an Endobronchial Polypoid Lesion That Regressed After Bronchial Artery Embolisation. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
Bronchial Dieulafoy's disease is extremely rare and characterised by a large‐calibre, submucosal artery lying just beneath the mucosa, predisposing to abrupt haemorrhage despite minimal or no mucosal defect. This case highlights the visual confirmation of lesion regression by bronchoscopy after bronchial artery embolisation.

We present a unique case of an 83‐year‐old man who aspirated an endosteal implant during a dental procedure. The foreign body was initially in the bronchus but later migrated to the gastrointestinal tract. This case explores the challenges of clinical management and retrieval of foreign bodies in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract.
