dc.description.abstract | A 23-year-old male patient had tetraplegia owing to a spinal cord injury after a traffic accident. In the intensive care unit, a tracheostomy was performed on the patient, who developed massive hemoptysis during follow-up. The patient was taken for urgent bronchoscopic evaluation by the thoracic surgeon, but no intervention could be carried out due to massive bleeding. A computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed to determine the etiology of the bleeding. The chest CTA revealed that the heart’s four chambers and the arterial and venous vascular systems, including the portal venous system, were completely filled with air (Figures 1a, 1b, and 1c). Additionally, cavitary lesions, consolidation areas, and treein-bud appearance were observed in both lung parenchymas, and pneumothorax was detected on the right side. | en_US |
