The purpose of this bicentric case series was to report the safety, efficacy, and clinical outcome of transcatheter embolization in pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms (PAPAs). Between January 2016 and June 2021, eight patients with PAPA were subjected to transcatheter embolization. The total number of patients was eight, of which five were female, with a mean age of 62 ± 14 years (average ± standard deviation). Etiology was traumatic in 2/8 cases and iatrogenic in 6/8 cases (after positioning a Swan-Ganz catheter in 5/6 cases and a temporary pacemaker in the latter case). In a single case, the PAPA was incidentally discovered during a routine X-ray, in the remaining 7 cases, the procedure was performed in emergency settings. PAPA embolization was performed using detachable coils alone in 3 cases; coils and glue in 1 case; coils, glue, and vascular plug in 1 case; coils and non-adhesive liquid embolic agents (Onyx and Squid respectively) in 2 cases; and non-adhesive liquid embolic agent alone (Onyx) in 1 case. No peri-procedural or post-procedural complications were recorded. Both the technical and clinical success rates were 100.0%. In conclusion, endovascular embolization is a technically feasible and safe therapeutic option for patients with PAPAs.

Objective: This study aims to compare the efficacies of unilateral pulmonary circulation temporary occlusion and simple pulmonary artery occlusion in treating lung cancer. Methods: We selected 120 patients with lung cancer who were admitted in our hospital from February 2015 to February 2016. The patients were equally divided into the observation and control groups. The patients in the control group underwent simple pulmonary artery occlusion, whereas the patients in the observation group underwent unilateral pulmonary circulation temporary occlusion. The groups were compared with respect to postoperative complications, bleeding, hospitalization time, and medical expenses of the patients. Results: The incidence of postoperative complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (3.4% and 20%, respectively; P<0.05). The number of bleeding cases, hospitalization time, and medical expenses of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Unilateral pulmonary circulation temporary occlusion was applied in lung cancer thoracotomy. This process can reduce complications, rate of postoperative bleeding, and treatment time. Postoperative recovery was rapid, and good therapeutic effect was also achieved. Therefore, this method has great potential in clinical applications.

“…[ 43 ] Traumatic pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms (PAPs) are rare, with around 30 cases reported in the literature. [ 50 , 51 ] Unlike systemic arterial PSAs, which enhance the arterial phase, PAPs are focal rounded areas of the contrast pool that corresponds to the pulmonary arterial enhancement. [ 52 ] Patients with chest pain, dyspnea, and hemoptysis can be managed through interventional techniques such as percutaneous hemostatic ablation or coil angioembolization and ultimate lung resection.…”

In the United States, gunshot wounds (GSWs) have become a critical public health concern with substantial annual morbidity, disability, and mortality. Vascular injuries associated with GSW may pose a clinical challenge to the physicians in the emergency department. Patients demonstrating hard signs require immediate intervention, whereas patients with soft signs can undergo further diagnostic testing for better injury delineation. Although digital subtraction angiography is the gold standard modality to assess vascular injuries, non-invasive techniques such as Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography angiography, and magnetic resonance angiography have evolved as appropriate alternatives. This article discusses penetrating bodily vascular injuries, specifically ballistic and stab wounds, and the corresponding radiological presentations.
