[The use of bronchological methods as the means for the intensive treatment of patients with severe manifestations of lung and pleural diseases].
The results of using methods of intensive therapy, i.e. administration of antibacterial mixtures into the retrotracheal fat as well as temporary bronchial occlusion are presented. 49 patients with severe or torpid diseases of specific and nonspecific etiology whose treatment was difficult because of complications or concomitant diseases were included into the study. The methods of intensive therapy proved efficient in some patients with severe affections of the lungs and pleura. They should be widely used in clinical practice.
