  • Title: Endoscopic management of acute respiratory failure related to tracheobronchial malignancies.
    Author: Ninane V.
    Journal: Support Care Cancer; 1995 Nov; 3(6):418-21. PubMed ID: 8564347.
    Abstract:
    Endobronchial treatment has an expanding role in the treatment of tracheobronchial tumors. Most patients are treated in this way for the palliation of dyspnea caused by a tumor located in a major airway. In cases where immediate relief is required, prompt control is better achieved by the neodymium-YAG laser or by stents. These two modalities and their indications and limitations in the endoscopic management of acute respiratory failure related to tracheobronchial malignancies are discussed.
