Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the results of bronchial artery embolization in management of hemoptysis in the Respiratory center, Military Hospital 103 from January 2016 to January 2021. Patients and methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was carried on in 102 patients with hemoptysis who were undergone bronchial artery embolization in the Respiratory center, Military Hospital 103 from January 2016 to January 2021. Results: Subjects were mainly male (75.49%), average age 56.09. Hemoptysis was mainly moderate (51.96%). The average number of culprit bronchial arteries was 1.62, the most common pathological arterial morphology: parenchymal hypervascularity (86.27%), hypertrophy and dilatation (79.41%), tortuos (62.74%). Results of bronchial artery embolization: Immediate complete success (88.23%), early recurrence rate (11.76%) and late recurrence (17.65%). 70.59% of patients did not witness recurrence of hemoptysis within 1 year.  Proportion of complications was 65.68% with mild level. Conclusions: Bronchial artery embolization is a safe and highly effective technique in treatment of hemoptysis.
