A 44-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for repeated hemoptysis. Selective angiography of the bilateral bronchial arteries showed them to be enlarged and convoluted, and revealed shunts between the bronchial and pulmonary arteries. The patient was diagnosed as having racemose hemangioma of the bronchial artery. Although embolization of the bronchial artery with gelatin sponges was performed, hemoptysis emerged again about one year later. Finally, segmentectomy of the right lower lung was performed and primary racemose hemangioma of the bronchial artery was histopathologically confirmed.(Internal Medicine 40: 650-653, 2001)
