Abstract

There are few reports regarding endovascular treatment in thoracic surgical patients. Here, we describe the cases of 2 patients who received adjuvant endovascular therapy prior to surgery. One presented with recurrent chest infection. Computed tomography revealed systemic blood supply to an intralobar sequestration. The other presented with an avulsion injury to the internal mammary vein. Coil embolization was employed in both patients with subsequent uncomplicated surgery. Endovascular intervention may stop active bleeding in the chest and reduce the risk of operative hemorrhage in selected thoracic surgical patients.
