✦ Synopsis


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.
