Abstract

We evaluated bronchofiberscopic treatment for 38 cases with malignant tracheobronchial tumor. We performed bronchofiberscopic ethanol injection therapy in 13 cases, endoscopic diode laser treatment in 19 cases and airway stent insertion in 9 cases. Each treatment was comparatively easy and improved symptoms such as dyspnea effectively.
