D H Hamer1, L E Schwab, R Gray.   

Abstract

Massive hemoptysis, a rare complication of pulmonary actinomycosis, is generally treated surgically. We describe a patient with massive hemoptysis due to pulmonary actinomycosis who was treated successfully by means of selective bronchial artery embolization. The role of BAE is discussed.
