AbstractBronchial artery embolization (BAE) is a well-established intervention for hemoptysis that requires airway management by a trained anesthesiologist. The use of fluoroscopic guidance for positioning a double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT) has been described in previous studies. The case presented illustrates a combined fluoroscopic- and bronchoscopic-guided approach for positioning a DLT in a patient with active pulmonary hemorrhage causing obstruction of views on bronchoscopy. This combined technique proved valuable in a situation marked by high clinical urgency.
