Small-cell Lung Cancer Presenting as Fatal Pulmonary Hemorrhage

Clinical application of interventional embolization in tumor-associated hemorrhage

Recently, the main clinical treatment methods for tumor-associated hemorrhage include systemic therapy, the application of hemostatic drugs, blood transfusion, symptomatic support therapy and endoscopic interventional hemostasis. Endoscopic hemostasis is performed mainly for patients with gastrointestinal bleeding, and the procedures include hardening of the blood vessels and the injection of hemostatic drugs. Surgical hemostasis methods mainly include the surgical ligation of bleeding blood vessels or tumor resection for hemostasis. Interventional hemostasis is a new hemostasis method. With the development of interventional radiology in recent years, transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) can quickly detect and accurately embolize arterial blood vessels. It is the preferred treatment for present tumor-associated hemorrhages.
