Abstract

Introduction: Aortic disease has a high mortality rate, especially when complications include - hemoptysis. Treatment includes surgery and endovascular intervention with its own advantages and disadvantages. Endovascular intervention is associated with good early and medium-term outcomes.


Subjects – Methods: We report 03 cases of hemoptysis due to ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm who underwent endovascular intervention at Dong Nai General Hospital.


Result: In all three cases, endovascular grafts were placed in the descending thoracic aorta, the number of grafts used was 1, the time to stop hemoptysis was 4-5 days, the hospital stay was from 6 to 8 days. No intravascular fistula was noted in the three patients. There were no cases of premature death, renal failure, prolonged mechanical ventilation and other major cardiovascular events.


Conclusion: The implementation of this technique at regional hospitals helps to improve prognosis, reduce mortality and complications, and contributes to improving the quality of hospital expertise.  (consider: contributes to improving the quality of hospital expertise.)
