  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Three patients with inoperable tracheobronchial stenosis were treated by Dumon silicone tracheo-bronchial stent. Patient 1 was a 56-year-old man with recurrent malignant thymoma. Patient 2 was a 68-year-old man who underwent right sleeve pneumonectomy for lung cancer and patient 3 was a 62-year-old woman with recurrence of undiffer-entiated carcinoma of the thyroid gland. All patients were treated by Dumon stent. Patients 1 and 3 were relieved of dyspnea and discharged from hospital.

Tracheal intubation is effective for dyspnea caused by tracheobronchial stenosis, but it causes intolerable pain and discomfort, and requires the patients complete rest. Dumon stent is recommend-ed for patients with tracheobronchial stenosis, even those in the end-stage, to relieve dyspnea and improve quality of life.
