title: [Use of the CO2 laser in endobronchial pathology].
abstract: Endoscopic therapy by CO2-laser of the "Skalpel-1" type through the Friedel breathing bronchoscope is analyzed. The treatment was performed in 40 patients with various endobronchial affections such as tumors, fistulas due to tuberculosis of the intrathoracic lymph nodes, specific and nonspecific stump inflammation, mycotic lesions of the stump mucosa, foreign bodies, cicatricial stenosis of the bronchi, scleroma of the trachea and bronchi, hemorrhage.
