Description

<p>Background: Evidences have shown that bronchial asthma (BA) enhances the risk of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). We previously reported the cases of adult BA patients complicated with PTE. (Aim) To clarify the risk factors of PTE in BA patients, we investigated about the characteristics and risk of contrast medium about patients coexisting asthma and PTE.</p><p>Methods: We investigated adult asthmatics who visited our hospital and examined chest contrasted CT from January 2011 to 2018.March, retrospectively.</p><p>Results: Fifty seven times examinations (33 asthmatics) were detected from 304 times of enhanced chest CT. We examined twenty times enhanced CT without premedication, but no subjects had side effect such as asthma attack. And also, we diagnosed 12 asthmatics as PTE from 33 patients. The subjects with PTE were high BMI (p=0.024) heavy weight (p=0.033), compared with asthmatics without PTE. There were no significant changes about lung function test, smoking history, sex and the levels of D-dimer among two groups.</p><p>Conclusion: Adult asthmatics with PTE were high BMI and heavy compared with those without PTE.</p>
