Endobronchial Tamponading Tracheobronchial Stenting Endobrochial Laser

Transbronchial Needle Aspiration

In patients with bronchogenic carcinoma, when the tumour is occupying and obstructing the passage of air resulting in breathlessness, after debulking the tumour with LASER a stent is placed to keep the passage patent. This is a self expandable metallic stent which is placed under local anaesthesia during flexible bronchoscopy and provides instant relief to the patient.
