[The CO2 laser in pathologic changes in the bronchial system].

The experience of endoscopic laser therapy using a CO2-laser "Skalpel-1" via Friedel bronchoscope is analysed. Treatment was administered to 40 patients with different endobronchial pathology: tumors, bronchonodular fistulas in tuberculosis of intrathoracic lymph nodes, non-specific stump inflammation, mycosis, ligature material, bronchial stenosis, tracheal and bronchial scleroma. High efficiency of endoscopic laser bronchoscopy is proved.

[Diagnostic bronchoalveolar lavage].

The bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is an important new method in the diagnosis of several lung diseases.

In contrast to other authors BAL is performed during an otherwise indicated bronchoscopy under general anesthesia using a catheter.
