Therapeutic bronchoscopy, utilizing flexible fiberoptic tools, has expanded beyond basic foreign body removal and hemostasis. This review covers advanced applications like laser therapy, brachytherapy, and airway stricture management.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Endoscopy

Background:

  • Endoscopic therapy is widely applied across medical fields.
  • Bronchial tree interventions historically relied on rigid bronchoscopy for foreign body extraction and hemostasis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evolution and expanded scope of therapeutic bronchoscopy.
  • To detail principles, indications, and procedures in modern therapeutic bronchoscopy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of principles and indications for therapeutic bronchoscopy.
  • Description of procedures including laser-bronchoscopy, endobronchial brachytherapy, airway stricture management, hemoptysis control, and foreign body removal.

Main Results:

  • Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopes have significantly broadened therapeutic possibilities.
