Objetivo. Determinar la variación a través del tiempo, de las causas de hemoptisis en pacientes hospitalizados. Material y Métodos. Estudio retrospectivo y transversal. Se revisó 251 historias clínicas de pacientes que fueron hospitalizados en el Hospital Dos de Mayo de Lima con diagnóstico de hemoptisis durante el período 2000-2011. Se recolectó variables como edad, sexo, procedencia, historia de tabaquismo, ocupación, antecedente de tuberculosis, entre otras. resultadOs. Las principales causas de hemoptisis fueron: tuberculosis activa (41,43 %), bronquiectasias (29,89%), cáncer pulmonar (7,97 %), micosis pulmonar (5,18 %), criptogénicas (4,38 %), bronquitis crónica (3,59 %), hidatidosis pulmonar (2,39 %) y neumonía (1,59 %).

Tuberculosis y bronquiectasias continúan liderando las principales causas de hemoptisis.

It was observed a moderate increase in the cases of bronchiectasis and lung cancer in relation to the findings reported in the year 2000. Conclusin.
