Malignant airway obstruction and hemoptysis are common in lung cancer patients. Recently, airway stent is commonly used to preserve airway in malignant airway obstruction. Hemoptysis can be managed through various methods including conservative treatment, endobronchial tamponade, bronchoscopic intervention, embolization and surgery. In our case studies, we sought to investigate the effectiveness of airway stents for re-opening the airway as well as tamponade effects in four patients with malignant airway obstruction and bleeding caused by tumors or lymph node invasions.
恶性气道阻塞和咯血在肺癌患者中很常见。最近,气道支架常用于保留恶性气道阻塞患者的气道。咯血可以通过多种方法进行治疗,包括保守治疗、支气管内填塞、支气管镜介入治疗、栓塞和手术。在我们的病例研究中,我们旨在研究气道支架在 4 名因肿瘤或淋巴结侵犯而导致气道阻塞和出血的患者中重新开放气道以及填塞效果的有效性。
