Abstract
Interventional bronchoscopy has developed rapidly in the management of lung cancer. Besides ablative resection of various modalities and balloon dilation/stent placement, which have been widely used in the management of malignant central airway obstruction, bronchoscopic brachytherapy and transbronchoscopic local injection of drugs are also developing. For early-stage peripheral lung cancer, transbronchoscopic ablation and the assisted localization of preoperative peripheral lung nodules by bronchoscopy are the new techniques. In addition, interventional bronchoscopy can manage complications related to lung cancer. Overall, interventional bronchoscopy has been an indispensable component in the treatment of lung cancer and has vast space for development. The review summarizes the recent updates.
期刊介绍:
Laparoscopic, Endoscopic and Robotic Surgery aims to provide an academic exchange platform for minimally invasive surgery at an international level. We seek out and publish the excellent original articles, reviews and editorials as well as exciting new techniques to promote the academic development.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:
▪ Minimally invasive clinical research mainly in General Surgery, Thoracic Surgery, Urology, Neurosurgery, Gynecology & Obstetrics, Gastroenterology, Orthopedics, Colorectal Surgery, Otolaryngology, etc.;
▪ Basic research in minimally invasive surgery;
▪ Research of techniques and equipments in minimally invasive surgery, and application of laparoscopy, endoscopy, robot and medical imaging;
▪ Development of medical education in minimally invasive surgery.
