This book provides an unbiased and evidence-based guide to the potential role of interventional pulmonology as an alternative to thoracic surgery. Interventional pulmonology is a new and quickly growing sub-specialty in pulmonary medicine and increasingly more pulmonologists are turning to interventional therapies over the more costly and invasive surgical options. The text thoroughly presents detailed coverage of and diagnostic methods for many diseases and conditions that pulmonologists encounter daily, including: diffuse lung infiltrates, solitary lung nodule, undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion, pneumothorax, hemoptysis, and airway foreign body. Experts then detail treatment options, from both a surgical and interventional perspective, with guidance on: when each procedure is most appropriate, what can be performed by a pulmonologist (with guidelines on how those procedures are done) versus what needs to be referred to a thoracic surgeon or an intervention pulmonologist, and thebenefits and disadvantages involved with each option. This is an ideal guide for pulmonologists, trainees, and students to better understand the full scope of possible treatment options for their patients and to make the best informed decision about patient care.

This book explores the non-interventional aspects ofinterventional pulmonology, focusing on diseases of the central airways. As thefield of bronchology and interventional pulmonology expands, newer conditionsinvolving the central airways are being recognized with increasingfrequency.  Current literature has mainly focused on technical aspects ofthe subspecialty, but this book illuminates what else interventionalpulmonology has to offer the pulmonologist, including diagnosis and alternatetherapeutic options.  Diseases of the Central Airways: A Clinical Guidepresents techniques for the diagnoses, management and treatment of patientswith intriguing central airway conditions such as: black bronchoscopy,tracheobronchomalacia, endobronchial tuberculosis, and tracheobronchopathiaosteochondroplastica.  In-depth chapters are written by international expertsand are up-to-date and comprehensive reviews.  This important new bookwill contribute significantly to the welfare of patients with lung ailments ofthe central airways. ​
