[Late post-traumatic hemoptysis caused by hypervascularization in the area of pulmonary hematomas. Apropos of a case].
The authors report a case of hemoptysis occurring after closed chest trauma complicated by spontaneously regressive parenchymatous hematomas. Bronchial arteriography showed systemic hypervascularisation with shunt in the territory of a hematoma which had regressed spontaneously several months previously. The authors mention the rarity of this aetiology and emphasise the value of bronchial arteriography and of embolisation.
