hemoptysis/뇌졸중

Hemoptysis in mitral stenosis may occur frequently, but massive pulmonary hemorrhage is uncommon. We describe a patient with mitral stenosis who had severe hemoptysis and required anticoagulation for recurrent embolic cerebrovascular accidents. The patient underwent successful mitral valve

Computed tomography (CT)-guided transthoracic lung biopsy is a common procedure for the diagnosis of pulmonary lesion. Pneumothorax, pulmonary hemorrhage and hemoptysis are the most common complications of the procedure. Air embolism is a rare serious complication. We reported a case with air

Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is an effective treatment for massive hemoptysis. Stroke is a rare complication of BAE, with only a few cases reported in the literature. We report one such case. Posterior circulation strokes after BAE can be caused by connections between the vertebral arteries

Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) after radiofrequency ablation for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) is an uncommon but serious complication. PVS stenting can rapidly restore pulmonary flow and improve symptoms with long-term low incidence of restenosis. However, high

BACKGROUND Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare clinical entity. Etiologies include malignancy, hyper-viscosity syndromes, and other etiologies. Patients may present with dyspnea, cough, or hemoptysis. CASE REPORT We present a case of a 64-year-old man with a history of metastatic lung cancer

Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is the treatment of choice for massive hemoptysis with rare complications that generally are mild and transient. There are few references in the medical literature with acute cerebral embolization as a complication of BAE. We report a case of intracranial

Massive haemoptysis, usually related to lesions of bronchial arteries, is a life-threatening complication of chest lesions. Embolization of bronchial arteries demonstrates immediate favourable results in at least 90% of cases. The main complications of embolization of bronchial arteries are

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations are often included in the differential diagnosis of common clinical presentations, including hypoxemia, hemoptysis, brain abscesses, and paradoxical stroke, as well as affecting 30% to 50% of patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Various

BACKGROUND Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is an established, safe, and effective procedure for the treatment of hemoptysis but long-term outcomes of the BAE have never been investigated before. OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyze long-term outcomes of the BAE. METHODS A retrospective chart

Cardiac myxoma (CM) is the most common benign cardiac tumor. We retrospectively reviewed our single center experience in 153 patients with CM over a period 25 years.From November 1993 to May 2017, 153 patients were operated in our institution with diagnosis of a CM. In all patients preoperative,

With the aging population, the burden of atrial fibrillation is increasing. Cryoablation is a novel technique for pulmonary vein isolation and is considered equally effective as radiofrequency ablation. Some of the known complications of cryoablation include phrenic nerve damage, esophageal injury,

From April 1981 to December 1988, a total of 23 patients were operated upon for the repair of an aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta with a tridodecylmethylammonium chloride (TDMAC)-heparin-impregnated shunt. There were 20 men and 3 women. The ages ranged from 29 to 72 years with a mean of
