Abstract
Patients suffering from severe tracheobronchial obstruction are vulnerable to dyspnea, respiratory failure, obstructive pneumonia, and death. Treatment with a holmium:YAG laser, an alternative to the neodymium:YAG laser, may provide symptomatic relief. This is the largest case series to date describing the application of the holmium:YAG laser via bronchoscopy for benign and malignant obstructive disease. The data were retrospectively collected...
