Abstract
A 36-year-old man was presented with hemoptysis. The contrast enhanced chest computed tomography and bronchial angiography revealed multiple bilateral ostial and intraparenchymal bronchial artery aneurysms (BAA) and bilateral primary Racemose hemangioma (PRH). Endovascular embolization with polyvinyl alcohol and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate was preferred to occlude the BAAs. Five days after the procedure, the patient was discharged and remained stable without recurrence over the 6 month follow up. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of PRH with multiple bilateral BAAs and the second published case of bilateral BAAs. This study aims to describe the successful treatment method employed for management of this rare condition and review the published articles relating to BBA and PRH.
