Abstract
Combined method of endotracheobronchial surgery with the use of high-tech recanalization and stenting procedures has been developed for patients with stenosing tracheobronchial cancer. From 1991 to 2023, 430 patients with stenosing malignant tumors of the trachea and large bronchi were treated. At the first stage of treatment, in order to restore airway patency the following interventions were implemented: mechanical cutting of the tumor in 0.2% of cases; Nd:YAG laser destruction in 25.6%; APC in 24.9%; electroresection in 9.3%; PDT in 5.7%, as well as their combination in 34.3%. At the second stage of treatment, taking into account the stage and histological structure, an open surgery, combined radiation therapy or endoscopic stenting were performed.
