Bronchography in patients with hemoptysis

JV Forrest, SS Sagel, and GH Omell

Retrospective analysis of 196 cases suggests that bronchography has limited value in the evaluation of hemoptysis. Most patients with a single episode of hemoptysis and normal plain chest roentgenographic and bronchoscopic findings do not require bronchographic examination. Advances in cytologic and biopsy procedures (fiberoptic bronchoscopy, bronchial brushing, needle aspiration) have largely replaced the usefulness of bronchography even when the plain chest roentgenogram is abnormal.
