1 Occlusive Endobronchial Stent Placement as a Novel Management Approach to Massive Hemoptysis from Lung Cancer  Johann C. Brandes, MD, PhD, Eric Schmidt, MD, Rex Yung, MD  Journal of Thoracic Oncology  Volume 3, Issue 9, Pages (September 2008) DOI: /JTO.0b013e318183af75 Copyright © 2008 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 (A) A three-dimensional reconstruction reveals the position of the 60 × 14 mm covered ultraflex stent which was placed into the left mainstem and the left upper lobe bronchus (thick white arrow). The left lower lobe bronchus is effectively occluded by the stent (white arrow). (B) After placement of a 60 × 14 mm ultraflex wall stent, bloody secretions are pooling (arrow) behind the covered portion of the stent in the left lower lobe bronchus, but do not spill over into the left mainstem bronchus.
