Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the main treatment option for destroyed-lung (DL) patients with life-threatening massive hemoptysis. However, short-term and long-term surgical safety and efficacy are unclear, prompting this study. METHODS Data from 124 DL patients undergoing surgery between November 2001 and January 2022 at Beijing Chest Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Data of the DL group (82 cases) and DL + massive hemoptysis group (42 cases) were compared with regard to clinical characteristics, long-term postoperative residual lung reinfection. RESULTS As compared with DL group rates, The DL + massive hemoptysis group had greater incidence rates of postoperative complications, invasive postoperative respiratory support, long-term postoperative residual lung reinfection, and postoperative tuberculosis recurrence. Revealed risk factors for postoperative complications (Extent of lung lesion resection), postoperative invasive respiratory therapy (preoperative Hb < 9 g/L, severe intraoperative hemoptysis), and postoperative long-term residual lung reinfection (DL with massive hemoptysis). CONCLUSIONS DL patients with massive hemoptysis had greater rate of invasive respiratory support therapy and postoperative complications. Extensive lesion removal, preoperative anaemia, severe intraoperative bleeding associated with recent postoperative complications for the patient.

BMC Pulm Med 2024; 24:314. [PMID: 38961405 PMCID: PMC11223292 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-024-03116-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Massive hemoptysis is characterized by its life-threatening nature, potentially leading to airway obstruction and asphyxia. The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of combining endobronchial tamponade with bronchial artery embolization (BAE) in the treatment of massive hemoptysis. METHODS Between March 2018 and March 2022, a total of 67 patients with massive hemoptysis who underwent BAE were divided into two groups: the combination group (n = 26) and the BAE group (n = 41). Technical and clinical success rates were assessed, and adverse events were monitored following the treatment. Blood gas analysis and coagulation function indicators were collected before and after the treatment, and recurrence and survival rates were recorded during the follow-up period. RESULTS All patients achieved technical success. There were no significant differences in the clinical success rate, recurrence rates at 3 and 6 months, and mortality rates at 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year between the combination group and the BAE group. However, the hemoptysis recurrence rate at 1 year was significantly lower in the combination group compared to the BAE group (15.4% vs. 39.0%, P = 0.039). No serious adverse events were reported in either group. After treatment, the combination group showed higher levels of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2), fibrinogen (FIB), and D-dimer (D-D) compared to the BAE group (P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis demonstrated a significant correlation between combined therapy and hemoptysis-free survival. CONCLUSION Combination therapy, compared to embolization alone, exhibits superior efficacy in improving respiratory function, correcting hypoxia, stopping bleeding, and preventing recurrence. It is considered an effective and safe treatment for massive hemoptysis.

Abstract
Massive hemoptysis is a time critical airway emergency in the perioperative setting, with an associated mortality exceeding 50%. Causes of hemoptysis in the perioperative setting include procedural complication, coagulopathy, malignancy, chronic lung disease, infection, left-sided cardiac disease, pulmonary vascular disease and autoimmune disease. A rapid and coordinated multidisciplinary response is required to secure the airway, isolate the lung, ensure adequate oxygenation and ventilation, identify the underlying cause and initiate specific systemic, bronchoscopic, endovascular, or surgical treatment. This review examines the etiology, pathophysiology, as well as approach to management and interventions in perioperative massive hemoptysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemoptysis is a challenging and potentially life-threatening medical condition. The most appropriate diagnostic work-up is debated and several diagnostic approaches are implemented worldwide. METHODS An international, online survey was carried out to investigate the current practice of the diagnostic work-up of patients with hemoptysis of unknown etiology. RESULTS Overall, 604 physicians responded to the survey. At baseline, chest X-ray was suggested as the first diagnostic investigation by 342 (56.6%) participants. Computed tomography (CT) was suggested in each patient with non- and life-threatening hemoptysis by 310 (51.3%) and 526 (87.1%) respondents, respectively. Contrast-enhanced CT is the currently preferred technique (333, 55.1%). In case of patchy ground glass opacities and negative CT, 287 (47.5%) and 222 (36.8%) participants, respectively, would always offer bronchoscopy. Otorhinolaryngological evaluation was mostly suggested in case of suspected upper airways bleeding before other investigations (212, 35.1%). A follow-up was recommended for idiopathic hemoptysis by the majority of the participants (316, 52.3%). A multidisciplinary assessment is deemed crucial for each patient with life-threatening hemoptysis (437, 72.4%). CONCLUSIONS Chest X-ray and contrast-enhanced CT are currently preferred as the first diagnostic investigations, regardless of hemoptysis severity. Bronchoscopy is suggested in case of negative radiological examination and when CT shows only ground glass opacities. Otorhinolaryngological evaluation is advised before any other investigations when upper airways bleeding is suspected. Patients with idiopathic hemoptysis are suggested to undergo a clinical follow-up and in case of life-threatening bleeding a multidisciplinary assessment is deemed crucial. Due to the heterogeneous approaches a consensus statement would be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Guidelines for the Management of Cough and Sputum (2019) of the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) were the first internationally published guidelines for the management of sputum. However, the data used to determine the causative diseases of bloody sputum and hemoptysis in these guidelines were not obtained in Japan. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed using the clinical information of patients with bloody sputum or hemoptysis who visited the department of respiratory medicine at a university or core hospital in Japan. RESULTS Included in the study were 556 patients (median age, 73 years; age range, 21-98 years; 302 males (54.3%)). The main causative diseases were bronchiectasis (102 patients (18.3%)), lung cancer (97 patients (17.4%)), and non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease (89 patients (16%)). Sex and age differences were observed in the frequency of causative diseases of bloody sputum and hemoptysis. The most common cause was lung cancer in males (26%), bronchiectasis in females (29%), lung cancer in patients aged <65 years (19%), and bronchiectasis in those aged >65 years (20%). CONCLUSIONS The present study is the first to investigate the causative diseases of bloody sputum and hemoptysis using data obtained in Japan. When investigating the causative diseases of bloody sputum and hemoptysis, it is important to take the sex and age of the patients into account.

Abstract
This article presents two cases of pulmonary hemorrhage successfully managed using TC-325, a novel hemostatic powder commonly known as Hemospray. Originally approved for endoscopic hemostasis in gastrointestinal bleeding, Hemospray's application in endobronchial bleeding control has not been widely reported. The cases highlight its efficacy in achieving immediate and sustained hemostasis in peripheral pulmonary bleeding, where conventional bronchoscopic therapies may be ineffective. The absence of adverse effects and the rapid cessation of bleeding underscore the potential of Hemospray as a valuable tool in the bronchoscopist's arsenal, especially in life-threatening hemoptysis scenarios. The ease of application and quick hemostatic effects position Hemospray as a pragmatic solution for cases with challenging bleeding sources. While further studies are warranted to validate its efficacy and safety in a larger cohort, these cases advocate for considering Hemospray as a potential game-changer in the comprehensive management of hemoptysis, addressing limitations or risks associated with conventional interventions.

Abstract
Background Massive hemoptysis during pregnancy is very rare. Dieulafoy's disease is one of the causes of massive hemoptysis. There are few reports of ECMO use to treat massive hemoptysis during pregnancy. Findings We report for the first time a patient with Dieulafoy's disease diagnosed at 29 weeks of pregnancy. The patient's hemoptysis occurred rapidly with large volumes. The bleeding amount reached 500 ml within half an hour, with the development of asphyxia and respiratory and cardiac arrest due to a blood clot blocking the airway. After successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the ventilator could not maintain effective ventilation. Emergency establishment of VV-ECMO was performed to maintain oxygen, and hemostasis was successfully achieved by performing bronchial artery embolization twice. We successfully cleaned blood clots in the airway four times by freezing and using a foreign body retrieval basket with an electronic bronchoscope. At the same time, small and smooth nodular lesions were found under bronchoscopy, and blood vessels with a diameter of 1.5 mm were found under Doppler mode with an ultrasonic bronchoscope, which was consistent with a diagnosis of Dieulafoy's disease. VV-ECMO was successfully stopped on the 3rd day of the disease course, tracheal intubation was successfully removed on the 5th day of the disease course, and the patient was discharged with no complications on the 16th day of the disease course.

Abstract
Effective lung isolation prevents lung-to-lung aspiration during thoracotomy for the management of hemoptysis. Double-lumen endobronchial tubes (DLT) and bronchial blockers are commonly used for lung separation during thoracic surgery. In this study, the fluid-sealing characteristics of the endobronchial cuffs of three different commercially available DLTs (Broncho-Cath with a polyvinylchloride cuff, Broncho-Cath with a polyurethane cuff, and Human Broncho with a silicone cuff) and two different bronchial blockers (Arndt and Coopdech bronchial blockers) were evaluated using a benchtop model. The lateral decubitus position for the surgical management of bleeding from the right lung was simulated. The artificial tracheobronchial tree was placed horizontally, with the left bronchus in the dependent position and the right bronchus in the non-dependent position. In the DLT experiments, the tracheobronchial tree was intubated with left-sided DLTs, and the endobronchial cuff was inflated to maintain the intracuff pressure at 25 cmH2O. In the experiments with bronchial blockers, each bronchial blocker was inserted into the right bronchus, and the endobronchial cuff was inflated to seal the main bronchus. A fluid leakage test around the endobronchial cuff was performed using three different types of DLT (size 35, 37, and 41 Fr, each) and two different types of bronchial blockers (9 Fr). The 5 mL of colored water was poured into the right bronchus to simulate the blood flow from the operative side, and the times to the first and 100% leakage around the endobronchial cuff were recorded. Each bronchial blocker showed significantly less leakage over time than the other DLTs (P < 0.05). Fluid was not fully leaked around the cuffs for 24 h with either bronchial blocker. The times to first and 100% leakage were not significantly different among different types of DLTs. The times to first and 100% leakage did not also differ among the three different sizes of each type DLT. There was no significant difference in the time to first leakage around the endobronchial cuffs between Arndt and Coopdech bronchial blockers. Bronchial blockers provided a more effective seal against lung-to-lung aspiration than DLTs in the lateral decubitus position for thoracotomy in the benchtop model.

Abstract
Post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) is emerging as a significant area of global interest. As the number of patients surviving tuberculosis (TB) increases, the subsequent long-term repercussions have drawn increased attention due to their profound clinical and socioeconomic impacts. A primary obstacle to its comprehensive study has been its marked heterogeneity. The disease presents a spectrum of clinical manifestations which encompass tracheobronchial stenosis, bronchiectasis, granulomas with fibrosis, cavitation with associated aspergillosis, chronic pleural diseases, and small airway diseases-all persistent consequences of PTLD. The spectrum of symptoms a patient may experience varies based on the severity of the initial infection and the efficacy of the treatment received. As a result, the long-term management of PTLD necessitates a detailed and specific approach, addressing each manifestation individually-a tailored strategy. In the immediate aftermath (0-12 months after anti-TB chemotherapy), there should be an emphasis on monitoring for relapse, tracheobronchial stenosis, and smoking cessation. Subsequent management should focus on addressing hemoptysis, managing infection including aspergillosis, and TB-associated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or restrictive lung function. There remains a vast expanse of knowledge to be discovered in PTLD. This review emphasizes the pressing need for comprehensive, consolidated guidelines for management of patients with PTLD.

Abstract
Hemoptysis in cancer patients can occur for various reasons, including infections, tumors, blood vessel abnormalities and inflammatory conditions. The degree of hemoptysis is commonly classified according to the quantity of blood expelled. However, volume-based definitions may not accurately reflect the clinical impact of bleeding. This review explores a more comprehensive approach to evaluating hemoptysis by considering its risk factors, epidemiology and clinical consequences. In particular, this review provides insight into the risk factors, identifies mortality rates associated with hemoptysis in cancer patients and highlights the need for developing a mortality prediction score specific for cancer patients. The use of hemoptysis-related variables may help stratify patients into risk categories; optimize the control of bleeding with critical care; implement the use of tracheobronchial or vascular interventions; and aid in treatment planning. Effective management of hemoptysis in cancer patients must address the underlying cause while also providing supportive care to improve patients' quality of life.

Abstract
Giant coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is a relatively uncommon disease that is defined by a focal dilation of at least 20 mm and characterized by various clinical symptoms. However, cases presenting primarily with hemoptysis have not been reported. A man in his late 20 s suffering from persistent chest pain for over 2 months was transferred to our emergency department for intermittent hemoptysis lasting for 12 h. Bronchoscopy detected fresh blood in the left upper lobe bronchus without a definite bleeding source. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a heterogeneous mass and the high-intensity signals suggested active bleeding. coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography demonstrated a giant ruptured CAA wrapped in a large mediastinal mass Coronary angiography confirmed the CAA originating from the left anterior descending artery. The patient underwent an emergency sternotomy and an enormous hematoma arising from a ruptured CAA densely adhering to the left lung was identified. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on the 7th day later. The ruptured CAA masquerading as hemoptysis highlights the indispensability of multimodality imaging for accurate diagnosis. Urgent surgical intervention is desirable in such life-threatening conditions.

Comparison of Bronchial Artery Embolisation Versus Conservative Treatment for Bronchiectasis-Related Nonmassive Haemoptysis: A Single-Centre Retrospective Study. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2023; 46:369-376. [PMID: 36658375 DOI: 10.1007/s00270-023-03361-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the safety and effectiveness between bronchial artery embolisation (BAE) and conservative treatment for bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2015 to December 2020, consecutive bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients who underwent either BAE (n = 98) or conservative treatment (n = 118) were included. Treatment-related complications, length of hospital stays, clinical success rate, patient satisfaction, and recurrence-free survival rates were compared between groups. Prognostic factors related to recurrence were also analysed. RESULTS During a median follow-up time of 44.8 months (range, 2.4-83.6 months), 34 and 66 patients in the BAE and conservative treatment groups suffered relapse. The 1-year, 2-year, 3-year and 5-year haemoptysis-free survival rates in the BAE and conservative treatment groups were 79.2%, 68.1%, 62.8%, and 57.6% and 64.0%, 52.8%, 44.1%, and 37.0%, respectively (P = 0.007). The minor complication rate after BAE was higher than that after conservative treatment (23/98 vs. 12/118, P = 0.008). BAE was associated with shorter hospital stays (5.0 vs. 7.0 days, P = 0.042) and higher patient satisfaction (88.8% vs. 74.6%, P = 0.008) than those for conservative treatment and with comparable clinical success rates (95.9% vs. 91.5%, P = 0.192). Treatment type, haemoptysis duration, and bronchiectasis severity were independently significant predictors of recurrence for these patients. CONCLUSIONS BAE could be another option for bronchiectasis-related nonmassive haemoptysis patients. In the patients with longer duration and more severe bronchiectasis, BAE still appeared to have better long-term haemoptysis control than conservative therapy.

Abstract
A 53-year-old man with a history of surgery for renal cancer was referred to our hospital due to massive hemoptysis. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed a well-enhanced pulmonary nodule suggestive of a tumor (diameter of 16 mm), which was considered a causal lesion. Bronchial artery embolization was successfully performed and subsequently hemoptysis disappeared. However, hemoptysis recurred 6 months later, and the tumor was surgically resected. Pathological examination revealed the resected tumor was a lung metastasis of renal cell carcinoma, which directly invaded into pulmonary bronchus. Hemoptysis secondary to lung metastasis of renal cell carcinoma has rarely been reported in the literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND National data on bronchoscopy for the evaluation of acute respiratory failure are lacking, and the limited available data suggest wide variation in use. RESEARCH QUESTION How commonly is bronchoscopy performed among hospitalizations with acute respiratory failure? How has use changed over time and across hospitals? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This was an observational cohort study of adult hospitalizations (2012-2018) treated with invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) using the National Inpatient Sample, which represents 97% of all hospitalizations in the United States. We measured the proportion of hospitalizations treated with IMV who underwent bronchoscopy and assessed trends in bronchoscopy use over time. Multilevel linear regression models were used to quantify hospital-level variation, adjusting for differences in patient and hospital characteristics. RESULTS We identified 6,101,070 IMV-treated hospitalizations (2012-2018), of whom 609,405 underwent bronchoscopy; among hospitalizations receiving bronchoscopy, mean age was 61 years, 41.8% were women, and in-hospital mortality was 30.8%. The percentage of IMV-treated hospitalizations receiving bronchoscopy increased from 9.5% (95% CI, 9.1%-9.9%) in 2012 to 10.8% (95% CI, 10.4%-11.2%) in 2018 (P < .001 for difference). In 2018, bronchoscopy use varied from 0% to 57.1% among 1,787 hospitals, and in multilevel models adjusted for patient and hospital characteristics, 16.0% of the variation was explained at the hospital level. The median OR was 2.13 (95% CI, 2.05-2.21), indicating 113% increased odds of receiving bronchoscopy if moving from a lower-use to a higher-use hospital. INTERPRETATION Bronchoscopy use among hospitalizations treated with IMV has increased over time. The large variation in use of bronchoscopy across hospitals suggests potentially unwarranted practice variation and need for further studies to clarify which patients benefit from bronchoscopy.

Radiol Case Rep 2022; 17:3897-3902.

Abstract
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in children rarely complicates life-threatening massive hemoptysis. Here, we report the case of a 15-year-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who was hospitalized for fever and medullary aplasia 1 month after beginning chemotherapy for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Despite voriconazole and caspofungine treatment, excavation of some lesions caused a unilateral small pneumothorax and bilateral pleural effusion, justifying intensive care management. The massive hemoptysis that occurred on day 23 was complicated with heart failure, and the patient was promptly resuscitated. Fibroscopy and computed tomography angiography (CTA) did not reveal the origin or cause of the bleeding. A second massive bleeding event occurred on day 32, and heart failure resolved after 10min of low flow. A new CTA showed 2 pseudoaneurysms of the subsegmental pulmonary arteries that were treated with embolization. Sedation was gradually decreased owing to improvement in respiratory status, but the patient did not regain consciousness because of deep brain sequelae. A limitation of care was decided upon, and the patient died in the following weeks. Massive hemoptysis is a rare life-threatening complication of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, especially in children. Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms are unusual and should be detected as soon as possible to guide therapy. Intensive care management should be followed by embolization if the patient is stable; otherwise, surgery is indicated, ideally after identifying the source of bleeding by CTA or bronchoscopy. Early CTA follow-up can be proposed if the source of bleeding is still unknown as pseudoaneurysms can appear or grow rapidly.

Abstract
Massive hemoptysis is a rare life-threatening condition in children. Individuals with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis may present with various degrees of hemoptysis. Therapeutic measures are mainly derived from studies involving adults or various case reports of children with cystic fibrosis. The standard management of massive hemoptysis is limited to invasive bronchoscopy, bronchial artery embolization, and surgical resection. Tranexamic acid (TXA) use is limited to non-massive hemoptysis or as an adjuvant and temporizing measure before definitive treatment. We report the potential use of TXA as an emergency treatment for massive hemoptysis in a 10-year-old boy with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and chronic infection. The use of systemic TXA (250 mg every eight hours for five days) successfully stopped active bleeding beginning from the first dose and altered the need for invasive interventions. Although he experienced another episode of massive hemoptysis because of pneumonia and pulmonary exacerbation, invasive measures were not required because he responded to systemic TXA immediately. Moreover, no further recurrence of hemoptysis was noted on cessation of TXA and throughout two years of regular follow-up. Therefore, TXA could be considered a non-invasive therapy for children with massive hemoptysis, especially in the absence of standard invasive therapies.

Abstract
Massive hemoptysis is appropriately defined as life-threatening hemoptysis that causes airway obstruction, respiratory failure, and/or hypotension. Patients with this condition die from asphyxiation, not hemorrhagic shock. Any patient who presents with life-threatening hemoptysis requires immediate treatment to secure the airway and stabilize hemodynamics. Early activation and coordinated response from a multidisciplinary team is critical. Once the airway is secure and appropriate resuscitation is initiated, priorities are to localize the source of the bleeding and gain hemorrhage control. Nonsurgical control of hemorrhage is superior to surgery in the acute situation.

Abstract
Massive hemoptysis is a high-risk, low-frequency clinical scenario, and teaching the management of this emergency should extend beyond reliance on clinical exposure. Massive hemoptysis requires emergent intervention to avoid asphyxiation and death. Practitioners need both cognitive and procedural skills to intervene in a high-stress situation. Cognitive aids have demonstrated benefits in other emergency settings, but no such tool exists for massive hemoptysis. Using expert recommendations, we developed the ABCDE Approach for Massive Hemoptysis, a cognitively accessible, prioritized toolbox of interventions designed to assist learners in organizing an approach to these high-risk and time-sensitive patient cases. Herein we present the elements and use of the ABCDE approach. Providing a cognitive approach to massive hemoptysis is an important first step in improving education for this potentially fatal clinical scenario.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) in patients with hemoptysis. METHODS We analyzed a total of 55 consecutive patients with hemoptysis (14 mild, 31 moderate, and 10 massive) treated with the embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate between November 2013 and January 2020. The main variables analyzed were the rates of technical success, of clinical success, of recurrence, and of complications. Statistics included a descriptive analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. RESULTS Embolization was a technical success in 55 (100%) and a clinical success in 54 (98.2%). During follow-up (mean, 23.8 months; interquartile range, 9.7-38.2 months), hemoptysis recurred in 5 (9.3%) patients. The nonrecurrence rate was 91.9% one year after the initial procedure and 88.7% two years and four years after the initial procedure. Minor complications related with the procedure occurred in 6 (10.9%); no major complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS The embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate is safe and efficacious for controlling hemoptysis, resulting in low recurrence rates.

Abstract
Trauma remains a leading cause of death for all age groups, and nearly two-thirds of these individuals suffer thoracic trauma. Due to the various types of injuries, including vascular and nonvascular, interventional radiology plays a major role in the acute and chronic management of the thoracic trauma patient. Interventional radiologists are critical members in the multidisciplinary team focusing on treatment of the patient with thoracic injury. Through case presentations, this article will review the role of interventional radiology in the management of trauma patients suffering thoracic injuries.

Surg Case Rep 2022; 8:80.

Abstract
Background Pulmonary hemorrhage is a life-threatening complication of cardiovascular surgery. Bronchial artery hypertrophy, a rare pathology associated with inflammatory and ischemic respiratory diseases, increases the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage; however, its involvement in cardiovascular surgery is not well known. We present two cardiovascular surgical cases in which embolization of the hypertrophied bronchial artery was effective in controlling perioperative pulmonary hemorrhage. Case presentation The first case was a 51-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who developed acute type A aortic dissection. After emergent surgery, his blood pressure suddenly dropped in the intensive care unit; computed tomography revealed a right hemothorax. Because a 4-mm dilated bronchial artery was identified on preoperative computed tomography, the hemothorax was suspected to be associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy. Selective bronchial arteriography was emergently performed and revealed a right pulmonary parenchymal blush. After subsequent coil embolization of the bronchial artery, the parenchymal blush disappeared, and his hemodynamic condition stabilized. The second case was a 66-year-old man with bronchiectasis who was referred for redo aortic valve replacement due to structural valve deterioration. A bioprosthesis was previously implanted to avoid permanent anticoagulation because the patient had repeated episodes of hemoptysis; however, he still had persistent hemosputum during admission for the redo aortic valve replacement. A dilated bronchial artery 3.7 mm in size was incidentally identified on preoperative computed tomography, and hence, the repeated hemosputum was suspected to be associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy. Bronchial arteriography revealed a right pulmonary parenchymal blush, and prophylactic embolization of the bronchial artery was performed. The hemosputum disappeared after the procedure, and redo aortic valve replacement was performed uneventfully 8 days later. Conclusion In cardiovascular surgery, the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy should be considered, especially in patients with inflammatory and ischemic respiratory diseases.

Abstract
Flexible bronchoscopy plays a critical role in both diagnostic and therapeutic management of a variety of pulmonary disorders in the bronchoscopy suite and the intensive care unit. In the set-ting of the ongoing viral pandemic, single-use flexible bronchoscopes (SUFB) have garnered attention as various professional pulmonary societies have released guidelines regarding uses for SUFB given the concern for risk of viral transmission when using reusable flexible bronchoscopes (RFB). In addition to offering sterility, SUFBs are portable, easily accessible, and may be more cost-effective than RFB when considering the potential costs of treating bronchoscopy-related infections. Furthermore, since SUFBs are one time use, they do not require reprocessing after use, and therefore may translate to reduced cleaning and storage costs. Despite these advantages, RFBs are still routinely used to perform advanced diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopic procedures given the need for optimal maneuverability, handling, angle of deflection, image quality, and larger channel size for passing of ancillary instruments. Here, we review the published evidence on the applications of single-use and reusable bronchoscopes in bronchoscopy suites and intensive care units. Specifically, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these devices as pertinent to fundamental, advanced, and therapeutic bronchoscopic interventions.

Abstract
Background Massive hemoptysis is a life-threatening complication after transbronchial biopsy (TBB). Reports on massive hemoptysis occurring several days after TBB are scarce. Case presentation A 62-year-old man presented with massive hemoptysis and was admitted to hospital as an emergency on the eighth day after TBB. On the 12th day after TBB, computed tomography showed complete atelectasis of the right middle and lower lobes. The patient underwent emergent right upper lobectomy. The right upper lobe bronchus was separated with a scalpel, the hematoma was pulled out with forceps, and the bronchus subsequently sutured shut. The patient was discharged from the hospital uneventfully. Conclusions We experienced a case of massive hemoptysis on the eighth day after TBB, which required emergency surgery due to persistent bleeding into the airway and airway obstruction during follow-up. Postoperative pneumonia and atelectasis could be prevented by manual removal of the residual hematoma.

Abstract
A cognitive aid is a tool used to help people accurately and efficiently perform actions. Similarly themed cognitive aids may be collated into a manual to provide relevant information for a specific context (eg, operating room emergencies). Expert content and design are paramount to facilitate the utility of a cognitive aid, especially during a crisis when accessible memory may be limited and distractions may impair task completion. A cognitive aid does not represent a rigid approach to problem-solving or a replacement for decision-making. Successful cognitive aid implementation requires dedicated training, access, and culture integration. Here the authors present a set of evidence-based cognitive aids for thoracic anesthesia emergencies developed by a Canadian thoracic taskforce.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although bronchial arteries are the most common cause of hemoptysis, other systemic arteries can cause hemoptysis and are potential pitfalls for successful embolization. CASE REPORT We present 6 cases of hemoptysis showing vascularization from systemic arteries other than bronchial arteries that presented to our department between 2013 and 2020. Chronic inflammatory diseases such as tuberculosis and pulmonary aspergillosis were the underlying diseases in 4 of the 6 cases. In all 6 cases, the lesions were close to the pleura. The abnormal non-bronchial systemic arteries were the internal thoracic artery in 4 cases, intercostal artery in 2 cases, lateral thoracic artery in 2 cases, and the subclavian, thyrocervical, and inferior phrenic arteries in 1 case each, all of which formed a shunt with the pulmonary artery. Additionally, depending on the location of the lesion, the non-bronchial systemic arteries near the lesion proliferated into the lung parenchyma through the adherent pleura. CONCLUSIONS When lesions are in contact with the pleura, various non-bronchial systemic arteries near the lesion can develop in the pulmonary parenchyma via the adherent pleura, which can cause hemoptysis. In patients with hemoptysis, it may be useful to evaluate chest contrast-enhanced computed tomography and angiography, while always accounting for the potential involvement of non-bronchial systemic arteries to ensure a safer and more reliable treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Massive haemoptysis refers to coughing and losing a huge amount of blood in a 24-hour period. It's a life-threatening condition with high mortality rate. Case presentation We report a rare case of massive haemoptysis in a 60-year-old female patient who had aortic coarctation repair 30 years ago. Her Computed tomography (CT) angiography showed huge aneurysmal dilatation and dissection of the descending thoracic aorta at the site of the repair. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was done, but the patient had recurrent massive haemoptysis due to extension of the aneurysm to the aortic arch. The patient then underwent one stage surgical right to left carotid artery shunt followed by TEVAR to the aortic arch covering the left common carotid artery. The procedure was successful, and haemoptysis was controlled without any complications. Discussion In this case the high index of suspicion for thoracic aortic aneurysm in patients presenting with haemoptysis and prior history of coarctation repair were demonstrated. Conclusion massive haemoptysis in patients who had aortic coarctation repair is an alarming sign, and surgical intervention is required. TEVAR has become one of the best approaches for managing aortic aneurysm and has replaced open repair. Thoracic aortic aneurysms must be ruled out in those patients who present with massive hemoptysis. In case of aortic coarctation repair, thoracic aortic aneurysms should be considered. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become one of the best approaches for managing thoracic aortic pathology. In patients who present with massive hemoptysis post TEVAR, aneurysms and endoleak must be ruled out.

Abstract
Bronchoscopy may be considered the “added value” in the diagnostic and therapeutic pathway of different clinical scenarios occurring in acute respiratory critically ill patients. Rigid bronchoscopy is mainly employed in emergent clinical situations due to central airways obstruction, haemoptysis, and inhaled foreign body. Flexible bronchoscopy (FBO) has larger fields of acute applications. In intensive care settings, FBO is useful to facilitate intubation in difficult airways, guide percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy, and mucous plugs causing lobar/lung atelectasis. FBO plays a central diagnostic role in acute respiratory failure caused by intra-thoracic tumors, interstitial lung diseases, and suspected severe pneumonia. “Bronchoscopic” sampling has to be considered when “non-invasive” techniques are not diagnostic in suspected ventilator-associated pneumonia and in non-ventilated immunosuppressed patients. The combined use of either noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) with bronchoscopy is useful in different scenarios; the largest body of proven successful evidence has been found for NIV-supported diagnostic FBO in non-ventilated high risk patients to prevent and avoid intubation. The expected diagnostic/therapeutic goals of acute bronchoscopy should be balanced against the potential severe risks (i.e., cardio-pulmonary complications, bleeding, and pneumothorax). Expertise of the team is fundamental to achieve the best rate of success with the lowest rate of complications of diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopic procedures in acute clinical circumstances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (PTNB) is performed to obtain tissue for a pathologic diagnosis. A PTNB is necessary prior to the initiation of many cancer treatments. There is a risk of hemoptysis, the expectoration of blood, with the possibility for adverse, life-threatening outcomes. A critical event checklist is a cognitive aid used in an emergency to ensure critical steps are followed. To date, there are no known checklists published for management of PTNB-related, life-threatening hemoptysis. The purpose of this report is to describe the development and implementation of a critical event checklist and the adoption of the checklist into hemoptysis management. METHODS In March 2017, a process improvement team convened to evaluate the hemoptysis response using the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) methodology. The checklist was evaluated and updated through September 2019. The team educated Interventional Radiology (IR) clinicians on the new checklist and conducted simulations on its use. A retrospective chart review was performed on hemoptysis events between the ten-year period of October 1, 2008 and September 30, 2018 to evaluate the adoption of the checklist into practice. RESULTS There were 231 hemoptysis events occurring in 229 patients (2 with repeat biopsies). Prior to implementing the protocol and checklist, there were 166 (71.9%) hemoptysis events. After implementation there were 65 (28.1%) events. The median amount of documented blood expectorated with hemoptysis was 100 mL (IQR 20.0-300.0). Twenty-six patients were admitted after PTNB for reasons related to the hemoptysis event (11.3%). During the procedure, four (1.7%) patients with hemoptysis suffered a cardiac arrest. Prior to implementation of the protocol and critical events checklist, nurses positioned patients in the lateral decubitus (LD) position in 40 out of 162 (24.7%) cases. After implementation of the critical events checklist, nurses positioned patients in the LD position 42 out of 65 cases (64.6%) (OR=5.57(95% CI 2.99-10.367), p<0.001). DISCUSSION Interventional Radiology nurses successfully adopted the checklist into management of hemoptysis events. The reported incidence of hemoptysis suggests a need for IR teams to prepare for and simulate hemoptysis events. Future research is needed to evaluate the change in patient outcomes before and after critical events checklist implementation.

Abstract
Hemoptysis, defined as bleeding into the tracheobronchial tree, is a serious symptom that can cause asphyxiation if inadequately treated. Massive hemoptysis carries a very high mortality risk, and therefore, a prompt multidisciplinary approach to hemoptysis is highly encouraged. Bronchial artery embolization has evolved as the mainstay of treatment in control of hemoptysis. It is a low-risk procedure that carries high initial clinical success rates. Despite relatively high recurrence rates, it can be repeated until the underlying disease process can be definitively treated.

Abstract
Trauma is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Approximately two-thirds of trauma patients have thoracic injuries. Nonvascular injury to the chest is most common; however, while vascular injuries to the chest make up a small minority of injuries in thoracic trauma, these injuries are most likely to require intervention by interventional radiology (IR). IR plays a vital role, with much to offer, in the evaluation and management of patients with both vascular and nonvascular thoracic trauma; in many cases, IR treatments obviate the need for these patients to go to the operating room. This article reviews the role of IR in the treatment of vascular an nonvascular traumatic thoracic injuries.

Abstract
We report a case of a 50-year-old man with a 10-year history of pedicle screw internal fixation in the thoracic spine and heroin abuse, who presented with sudden-onset massive hemoptysis with hemorrhagic shock and asphyxia. Urgent contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography (CT) characteristically showed thoracic aortic perforation, a paravertebral pseudoaneurysm, and an intrapulmonary hematoma. Emergency percutaneous thoracic endovascular aortic repair (pTEVAR) with the preclose technique using a vascular closure device under local anesthesia achieved success without any complications. The current case highlights the importance of understanding massive hemoptysis caused by an aortobronchial fistula related to pedicle screw impingement in clinical practice and the value of pTEVAR with the preclose technique under local anesthesia in the emergency setting.

Abstract
Haemoptysis can be a life-threatening condition, and bronchial artery embolisation (BAE) is the most effective treatment. A 19-year-old man who had been followed up for neutrophil migration failure and bronchiectasis since birth was admitted to our department with repeated haemoptysis. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed hyperplasia and tortuosity of the bronchial artery; however, it could not reveal the origin and running by the axial views. Three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) CT revealed branching of the right bronchial artery from the left subclavian artery and a bronchial artery–pulmonary artery shunt. Bronchial angiography confirmed these findings. Based on these findings, BAE was successfully performed. 3D and 4D CT can be useful for determining the cause of haemoptysis. Furthermore, evaluating the anatomy of bronchial arteries prior to BAE may be useful for performing safer procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) in patients with hemoptysis. METHODS We analyzed a total of 55 consecutive patients with hemoptysis (14 mild, 31 moderate, and 10 massive) treated with the embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate between November 2013 and January 2020. The main variables analyzed were the rates of technical success, of clinical success, of recurrence, and of complications. Statistics included a descriptive analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. RESULTS Embolization was a technical success in 55 (100%) and a clinical success in 54 (98.2%). During follow-up (mean, 23.8 months; interquartile range, 9.7 - 38.2 months), hemoptysis recurred in 5 (9.3%) patients. The nonrecurrence rate was 91.9% one year after the initial procedure and 88.7% two years and four years after the initial procedure. Minor complications related with the procedure occurred in 6 (10.9%); no major complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS The embolization of bronchial arteries and nonbronchial systemic arteries with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate is safe and efficacious for controlling hemoptysis, resulting in low recurrence rates.

Abstract
We report the case of a 2-year-old girl who developed catastrophic haemoptysis due to an arterio-bronchial fistula after transcatheter balloon dilatation for a narrowing aortopulmonary shunt. We embolised the fistula while haemoptysis was controlled with the left bronchial block ventilation and haemostatic balloon occlusion of the left subclavian artery. An arterio-bronchial fistula is an extremely rare complication for balloon dilatation of an aortopulmonary shunt.
