 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Selective bronchial artery embolization for hemoptysis clinical application [Keywords:] Hemoptysis; embolism; bronchial artery [Abstract] Objective To study the selective bronchial artery embolization for hemoptysis in clinical application. Methods 15 cases of hemoptysis patients with bronchial arteriography, after the abnormal bronchial artery embolization using gelatin sponge. Results 10 cases of hemoptysis ceased, four cases of hemoptysis ceased, and 1 case of postoperative recurrence. Conclusions Selective bronchial artery embolization for hemoptysis in patients is an effective, safe and simple method of treatment. [Keywords:] Hemoptysis; embolism; bronchial artery Selective bronchial artery embolization, is a selective bronchial artery catheterization and angiography developed on the basis of a treatment measures in recent years has been widely in clinical application. Reported in the literature have been more treatment of massive hemoptysis using this method to obtain satisfactory outcome. Our hospital on 15 patients with massive hemoptysis the application of the treatment of patients achieved satisfactory results, are reported as follows. 1 Data and methods 1.1 General information on 15 cases of massive hemoptysis patients, 10 males and 5 females. Age 28 to 60 years, mean 44 years old. Of which 7 cases of bronchiectasis, tuberculosis, 6 cases of lung cancer in 2 cases. 15 cases of massive hemoptysis in patients with five cases of emergency bronchial artery embolization, 10 cases by the medical effects of drug therapy to poor bronchial artery embolization, embolization prior proactive anteroposterior chest X-ray film or chest CT examination, a clear The exact location of pulmonary lesions. Check out all routine preoperative clotting time, platelet count normal. 1.2 Methods Seldinger method, percutaneous femoral artery puncture, placed 5F cobra catheter sheath. According to X-ray and chest CT scan images shown in lesion si
