AbstractMassive hemoptysis is a potentially fatal respiratory emergency. The majority of these patients are referred to interventional radiology for bronchial artery embolization (BAE). Immediate clinical success in stopping hemoptysis ranges from 70 to 99%. However, recurrent hemoptysis after BAE is seen in 10 to 55% patients. One of the main reasons for recurrence is incomplete embolization due to unidentified aberrant bronchial and/or non-bronchial systemic arterial supply. This pictorial essay aims to describe the normal and variant bronchial arterial anatomy and non-bronchial systemic arterial feeders to the lungs on conventional angiography; the knowledge of which is critical for interventional radiologists involved in the care of patients with hemoptysis.

Anterior Spinal Artery Syndrome

Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) has risen as one of the cornerstones of massive hemoptysis management. Though rare, spinal cord infarction is a potential complication. Here, we present a case of a 65 year old gentleman who presented with acute weakness and was diagnosed with spinal cord infarction following BAE. This case will also review the pathophysiology of this adverse complication.
