title: [Investigation of complications of bronchial artery embolization using superselective catheter system and platinum coil-major complications as vascular detachment].
abstract: We have performed bronchial artery embolization (BAE) in patients with hemoptysis using a superselective catheter system and a permanent-emboli coil. We performed an investigation because major complications were observed. Of a total of 57 BAE using this system, 7 cases of major complications as detachment of the large vessel were found. Although BAE using this system is effective because permanent emboli can be selectively in-dwelled in abnormally developing vessels, detachment of vessels were developed in 7 cases. They are found more frequently for embolization of the left bronchial artery and full attention should be paid to this phenomenon when performing this surgery.
