ABSTRACT
Massive hemoptysis has multifactorial etiology and high morbimortality. The treatment of this pathology must be early and timely and includes airway control, support measures and hemorrhage control based on fibrobroncoscopy, laser photocoagulation, arterial embolization and surgery. Recombinant activated VII factor (rFVIIa) is a novel therapeutic approach for acute critical bleeding in hemophilic and non hemophilic patients. There are lots of publications concerning its efectivity in hemorrhage secondary to thrombocytopenia, thrombocytopathy, trauma, hepatopathy, hepatic transplantation, oral anticoagulant intoxication, postcardiac surgery bleeding, etc., but worldwide there are not reports for its use in massive hemoptysis. The objective of this paper is to describe the rFVIIa use in a patient with massive hemoptysis secondary to bronquiectasia treated in the intensive care unit of the Clinic Foundation Medica Sur and to review the literature.
