title: [A case of tracheal stenosis caused by invasion of recurrent lung cancer palliated with dumon stent after Nd-YAG laser and bouginage using of tracheal tube].
abstract: The patient was 67 year-old male with tracheal stenosis caused by invasion of recurrent lung cancer after right upper sleeve lobectomy. He visited to our hospital for the purpose of palliation with tracheal stent. But rigid bronchoscope cannot be passed through its lesion because of severe stenosis. So the bouginage was performed. This method was that tracheal tube was inserted into his trachea through the hole of tracheotomy during six days following Nd-YAG laser therapy. After this treatment, rigid bronchoscope was inserted into the trachea and Dumon stent was placed safely and easily. It seems to be an useful palliation for patients with severs invasive tracheal stenosis.
