Life-Threatening Hemoptysis Leading to Suffocation.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Hemoptysis represents a symptom or sign that typically causes anxiety for patients and draws the attention of the physician because it can be caused by various conditions, ranging from benign to malignant. Depending on the amount of coughed-up blood, hemoptysis can be a life-threatening condition. We present the case of a female patient with a life-threatening hemoptysis that was caused by underlying bronchiectasis and antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatments. A large blood clot was extracted from the patient's airways using a rigid bronchoscope. Hemoptysis is a significant symptom that should be taken seriously, regardless of its size. Massive hemoptysis is an emergency condition in respiratory medicine, which requires immediate management in adequately equipped centers.
