Role of computed tomography angiography in the evaluation of haemoptysis in children: Decoding the abnormal vessels
CONCLUSIONS: Active infections and bronchiectasis are the most common causes of haemoptysis in children. While post-infectious sequelae are less common, in patients with haemoptysis, the presence of any abnormal arteries correlates with a more frequent diagnosis of bronchiectasis. NBSCs are more common in post-infectious sequelae and CHD.PMID:36124510 | DOI:10.4103/ijmr.IJMR_3271_20
