title: [Interventional bronchology as an interdisciplinary responsibility].
abstract: Therapeutic interventions in the bronchial system have acquired great importance. Apart from removing secretion retentions, blood coagulates, and foreign bodies, the quality of life of patients suffering from occlusions of the bronchi is also improved by endobronchial laser therapy, after-loading therapy, and the implantation of stents. These are palliative measures within the framework of tumour therapy. Inflammatory stenoses are an equally important indication for laser therapy and stent implantation. The results obtained with these various forms of therapy are excellent. Interventional bronchology involves many specialist disciplines. The pneumologist performing bronchoscopy interlinks these individual disciplines.
