  • Title: Bilateral bronchial stenting and esophageal intubation for advanced bronchial carcinoma with esophageal invasion.
    Author: Kotsis L, Pápai Z, Udud K, Poller I, Orbán K, Csekeío A.
    Journal: Dis Esophagus; 2001; 14(3-4):268-70. PubMed ID: 11869337.
    Abstract:
    Successive bilateral bronchial stenting (Dumon type) and minimally invasive pull-through esophageal intubation for accompanying malignant bronchial and esophageal involvement was undertaken. External radiation and afterloading brachytherapy for localized endobronchial overgrowth was used. A 13-month survival was achieved using mainly out-patient facilities. During such esophageal intubation, bronchoscopic control is mandatory. Extended complex palliation was obtained using this combined treatment, even in the high-risk stage of advanced tracheobronchial carcinoma with associated esophageal stricture.
