Overview
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
- Hemoptysis is an important symptom that has different etiologies and pathogenesis mechanisms.[1]
- Blood in the hemoptysis is mostly originated from the pulmonary vasculature. However, it could be from the gastrointestinal system as well.
- Lung has two main vascular systems which are:
- Pulmonary vessels
- Bronchial vessels

- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
