Hemoptysis is an emergency condition, often caused by many different causes. If not treated promptly, the patient may die from hemorrhagic shock or respiratory failure. Currently, digital subtraction angiography and bronchial embolization are minimally invasive and highly effective procedures in the treatment of hemoptysis.

Bronchial artery angiography and embolization is a treatment technique applied in cases of patients with mild, moderate to severe hemoptysis and recurrence.
