Invited commentary
Managing a patient with massive hemoptysis that occurs while the patient is fully heparinized is a daunting experience that is often fatal. With the seemingly irrevocable dissolution of the cardiothoracic surgeon into either a cardiac or a thoracic surgeon, management of these cases may become not only tenuous but suboptimal, as more and more of the younger generation of cardiac surgeons today have little experience with the rigid bronchoscope.
