  • Title: Massive Hemoptysis due to Endotracheal Hemangioma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
    Author: Yu Y, Lee S, An J, Lee J, Kim J, Lee Y, Jung E, Song S, Kim H, Kim S.
    Journal: Tuberc Respir Dis (Seoul); 2015 Apr; 78(2):106-11. PubMed ID: 25861344.
    Abstract:
    Tracheal hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumor in adults. We reported a case of massive hemoptysis caused by a cavernous hemangioma in a 75-year-old man. This is the first report, to our knowledge, of a tracheal cavernous hemangioma that presented with massive hemoptysis. The lesion was removed with a CO2 laser under rigid laryngoscopy. Endovascular tumors, such as tracheobronchial hemangiomas, should be considered a diagnostic option in cases of massive hemoptysis without a significant underlying lung lesion.
