Bronchial artery embolization is typically a reliable treatment option with studies demonstrating an association with decreased mortality and 6-month rebleeding rates compared to nonsurgical options [1]. Bronchial artery embolization has a 70-99% success rate of complete cessation of hemoptysis, especially if bronchial, pulmonary and/or systemic arterial circulations are well defined during the procedure [2]. This case describes a patient who underwent and failed arterial embolization three times with continued recurrent hemoptysis.
