ABSTRACT
Two patients underwent bronchoscopic laser photoresection of tumors in the tracheobronchial tree with no mortality or significant morbidity. One patient had an adenoid cystic carcinoma of the trachea and the other a pleomorphic adenoma of left main stem bronchus. These were the first two cases performerd in Puerto Rico at San Pablo Medical Center. Both patients are symptomless at this time. We can conclude that laser is a safe and cost effective altenative in experienced hands to other procedures in properly selected patients with tumors of tracheobronchial tree in Puerto Rico
