Survival and quality of life benefit after endoscopic management of malignant central airway obstruction [PDF]

, 2016
Although interventional management of malignant central airway obstruction (mCAO) is well established, its impact on survival and quality of life (QoL) has not been extensively studied.We prospectively assessed survival, QoL and dyspnea (using validated ...
