ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the short-term efficacy of treating the tumorous airway obstruction by placing net stents following high-frequency electrocautery via fiberoptic bronchoscope.Methods 14 patients of lung cancer with airway obstruction had undergone the tumor burning excision by high-frequency electrocautery via fiberoptic bronchoscope and placed net stents , then to observe the clinical efficiency.Results 14 patients of lung cancer with airway obstruction all revealed better efficacies, obviously improving Karnofsky scores and pulmonary function, and no evident complication was found.Conclusion Placing net stents following high-frequency electrocautery via fiberoptic bronchoscope can cure efficiently the tumorous airway obstruction, and have popular value.
