Abstract

A 66-year-old man was hospitalized because of hemoptysis. Four years earlier, he had undergone an operation involving the use of an omental pedicle flap that was supplied by the right gastroepiploic artery for the treatment of empyema. Arteriography revealed that the right gastroepiploic artery communicated with the periphery of the right pulmonary artery. The right gastroepiploic artery was divided surgically.
