[Transcatheter occlusion of the bronchial and systemic arteries of the lung in patients with tetralogy of Fallot as a method of arresting pulmonary hemorrhage].
Transcatheter endovascular occlusion of systemic arteries, the sources of pulmonary haemorrhages, has advantages over operative means of hemoptysis arrest. It is the only patients with congenital valvular blue-type defects, with markedly-developed network of systemic pulmonary arteries. Two case reports are presented where the occlusion of bleeding systemic vessels was successful. Mechanisms of pulmonary haemorrhage development in cases of Fallot's tetrad are discussed. Practical recommendations are made with respect to the identification of vessels causing pulmonary bleeding and transcatheter occlusion thereof.
