A Case of Comprehensive Interventional Therapy for Bronchial Thromboembolism Caused by Hemoptysis
We report the case of a patient with massive hemoptysis from dual bronchial artery malformations that necessitated emergent embolization. Extensive jelly‐like endobronchial clots caused complete lobar collapse refractory to suction. We used cryoextraction to achieve rapid, en‐bloc removal of arborizing casts with prompt radiographic resolution ...
