Early versus delayed bronchial artery embolization for non-massive hemoptysis.

• Bronchial artery embolization afforded good clinical improvement for treating non-massive hemoptysis without significant complications. • An early interventional strategy should be considered in patients presenting with non-massive hemoptysis to reduce the length of hospital stay and early recurrence. • A delayed time to embolization and the presence of aspergilloma were independent risk factors for recurrent hemoptysis.
