Expandable metal stents for non-malignant bronchial obstruction.

R A Fox1, R De L Stanbridge, J Brown, J F Riordan, R M Rudd.   

Abstract

An expandable metal stent was inserted to relieve bronchial obstruction following lobectomy for localised squamous carcinoma which had not been relieved by bronchoplasty with a Goretex flap. This resulted in substantial improvement in lung function and exercise tolerance for nine months, following which severe inflammation around the stents required residual pneumonectomy.
