Alveolar soft part sarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor arising in extremities. The universal tendency for late widespread metastasis to lung, bone and brain, make the treatment of this tumor a particular challenge. This time, we performed the intra-arterial infusion of MMC and bronchial arterial embolization by spongel for hemoptysis of this metastatic lung tumor. Rosenbaum has reported the characteristics of angiogram of the metastatic brain tumor. In our case, bronchial arteriography showed the manifest hypervascular pattern "rosary form," "pooling" and "B-P shunt." These findings should yield benefits for the diagnosis and treatment of this metastatic lung tumor.
