    Author: Kervancioglu S, Andic C, Bayram N, Telli C, Sarica A, Sirikci A.
    Journal: Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol; 2008; 31(4):824-7. PubMed ID: 18196330.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary parenchymal endometriosis is extremely rare and usually manifests itself with a recurrent hemoptysis associated with the menstrual cycle. The therapies proposed for women with endometriosis consist of medical treatments and surgery. Bronchial artery embolization has become a well-established and minimally invasive treatment modality for hemoptysis, and to the best of our knowledge, it has not been reported in pulmonary endometriosis. We report a case of pulmonary parenchymal endometriosis treated with embolotheraphy for hemoptysis.
