ABSTRACT
Hemoptysis occurs quite frequently as a consequence of mitral stenosis, but massive, lirE threatening pulmonary hemorrhage is distinctly unusual. We report a 30 year old female who underwent cmcrgcncy rcdo double valve replacement for intractable pulmonary hemorrhage. she underwent mitral valve replacement (lonescu Shirley 27 mm) due to rheumatic valvular heart disease in 1984 and tricuspid valve annuloplasty (Carpentier's ring 30mm) two years later She was admitted for massive hcmoptysis and dyspnea on the 26th of December, 1995. Medical treatment including transarterial embolization was given but was not satisfactory. Emergency valve replacement (Mitral valve, St. Judc 29mm and tricuspid valve ; St. Jude 33mm) was performed and hemoptysis was controlled dramatically 24 hours after surgery.
