Abstract: AIM:To study the clinical efficacy of microcatheter superselective bronchial artery embolization in acute hemoptysis with different embolism agents.METHODS:Microcatheter superselective bronchial artery embolization was performed in 45 patients with massive hemoptysis, among them 9 cases were embolized with simple gelfoam sponge particles (GS), 13 cases with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and GS, 23 cases with PVA and GS and suture silk, All cases were followed up for 1 to 2 years.RESULTS:The recent, metaphase and long-term effective power of three groups were as follows:77.8 %, 100 %, 100 %; 77.8 %, 100 %, 100 %;57.1 %, 100 %, 100 %. There was no distinct difference among the recent effective power, but there was discrimination among metaphase and long-term effective power.CONCLUSION:The bronchial artery embolization with PVA plus GS, and PVA plus GS and suture silk group were more efficient therapy in acute hemoptysis.
