Аннотация
Endobronchial electrocautery using a polypectomy snare may serve as a useful tool for treating patients with airway obstructing polypoid tumors. An 84-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of an abnormal shadow observed on chest radiography. He was diagnosed with advanced squamous cell carcinoma, located in the right lower lobe of the lung along with metastatic lesions and obstructive pneumonia. He declined systemic chemotherapy because of his age. Endobronchial electrocautery using a polypectomy snare was performed to treat the obstructive pneumonia. The patient's quality of life improved after polypectomy. This was due to an improvement in malaise and a spontaneous decrease in the size of the hepatic metastasis tumor.
