    Abstract:
    Bronchoscopic laser operative interventions with the use of yttrium- aluminum -garnet laser were carried out in 36 patients with various pathological structures of the trachea. Laser endosurgery was applied as radical and palliative types of therapy. Endoscopic laser interventions make it possible to remove completely benign and carcinoid tumors, correct some types of cicatricial stenoses, restore continuity of the trachea, and remove respiratory insufficiency in inoperable malignant neoplasms with exophytic growth.
