Two cases of showed hemoptysis (over 200 ml), and one case of chronic bloody phlegm were treated by suction to clear the tracheobronchial tree, following which fibrinogen and thrombin were infused or nebulized by fiberoptic bronchoscopy. The two cases of hemoptysis were completely managed, but the case of bloody phlegm was not controlled. This simple, safe method can be effective in bronchial hemostasis.
