Tuberculous tracheobronchial stricture is a rare disease entity at the present time. We report our experiences with carbon dioxide laser treatment for four patients with tuberculous strictures that were resistant to conventional management. All patients were relatively young but were debilitated by the disease. The lesions differed from other forms of benign tracheal strictures as they tended to involve the trachea and right side of the lung and were often multiple. The reasons for this are related to the organism per se and the anatomical arrangement of the tracheobronchial airway. The pathophysiology of tuberculous strictures in the tracheobronchial airway and the technique of bronchoscopic laser resection are outlined.
结核性气管支气管狭窄目前是一种罕见的疾病实体。我们报告了对4例常规治疗无效的结核性狭窄患者进行二氧化碳激光治疗的经验。所有患者相对年轻，但因疾病而身体虚弱。这些病变与其他形式的良性气管狭窄不同，因为它们往往累及气管和右肺，且常常是多发的。其原因与病原体本身以及气管支气管气道的解剖结构有关。本文概述了气管支气管气道结核性狭窄的病理生理学和支气管镜激光切除术技术。
