Abstract
The current study analyzed a case of contrast-induced encephalopathy (CIE) following bronchial artery embolization (BAE) in a patient with hemoptysis due to pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by pulmonary aspergillosis. A 56-year-old male patient developed CIE after BAE was retrospectively analyzed. An ectopic bronchial artery originates from the proximal segment of the right vertebral artery. The patient developed CIE postoperatively, which resolved after treatment with corticosteroids and intracranial pressure reduction. A follow-up cranial MRI after 6 months showed complete resolution of previous edema. A literature review identified three cases of CIE after BAE, all presenting with hemoptysis, and symptom resolution within 3 days.
