Analysis of therapeutic efficacy of endovascular embolization using Embosphere microsphere in the treatment of massive hemoptysis / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of Embosphere microsphere in the treatment of massive hemoptysis during bronchial arterial embolization(BAE).To analyze the factors influencing the recurrence by Cox regression model.Methods Ninety patients with massive hemoptysis who underwent BAE using Embosphere microsphere were included.The immediate hemo-stasis rate within 24 hours,clinical success rate and prognostic factors were statistically analyzed.Results The immediate hemosta-sis rate within 24 hours was 94.4％(85/90).The clinical success rate was 56.7％(51/90).Cumulative hemoptysis-free recurrence con-trol rates at 6 months,1 year and 2 years postoperative were 81％,78％and 57％,respectively.Cox regression model analysis showed that the variables associated with recurrence were long-term hemoptysis,lung cancer,tuberculosis and lung destruction.Conclusion Embosphere microsphere are safe and effective embolic particles in the treatment of massive hemoptysis during BAE.Risk factors for hemoptysis recurrence include long-term hemoptysis,lung cancer,tuberculosis and lung destruction.
