ABSTRACT
Tulepov's endotracheal tube, patent No. 2594, 1995, is described. The tube is used in all interventions under endotracheal narcosis and can be used for fibrobronchoscopy under narcosis. Bronchological manipulations under total narcosis were carried out using the proposed endotracheal tube in 76 patients with lung cancer.

In this paper the authors describe: a method of bronchospirography with the use of bronchofibroscope; a method of simultaneous performance of bronchospirography and bronchofibroscopy; criteria of indices and staging of each lung ventilation capacity; patterns of interrelation of the "healthy" and disabled lung according to the degrees of lung ventilation disturbance; indications and contraindications to operative treatment based on bronchospirographic data. For evaluation of the operability bronchospirographic investigations of the lung ventilation capacity were carried out in 225 lung cancer patients.
