PurposeTo evaluate the role of systemic arterial embolization for the management of non-emergent hemoptysis in patients with primary or metastatic lung tumors. Materials and methodsThis is a retrospective single center study of consecutive patients who underwent systemic arterial embolization for non-emergent hemoptysis between 2011 and 2023. Study endpoints included technical success, clinical success (partial or complete resolution of hemoptysis) and overall survival. Hemoptysis-free and overall survival were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Predictive factors for hemoptysis-free survival and overall survival were evaluated using univariate analysis (Cox regression). Post-procedural 30-day adverse events were recorded in line with Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0. ResultsA total of 30 patients were identified. Technical success was achieved in 24/30 (80 %) patients. Clinical success following embolization was achieved in 23/30 (76.7 %) patients. Median length of hospitalization was 5 days (Range: 1 to 16 days). Median overall survival was 194 days (95 % CI: 89 to 258). Median hemoptysis-free survival was 286 days (95 % CI: 42 to not reached). No significant clinical or procedural predictors of hemoptysis-free survival or overall survival were identified. Serious adverse events (CTCAE Grade > 3) occurred in 1 patient (3.4 % − fatal respiratory failure). ConclusionEmbolization of non-emergent hemoptysis in patients with lung malignancies is safe and effective. Recurrence is however high in this patient population, likely due to the nature of the underlying disease.
