The original methods of the radical and palliative endobronchial and combined radiation treatment of patients with primary and relapsing cancer of trachea and bronchi and the approaches to the calculation of dosimetric radiation plans are developed and suggested. The possibility of combining endobronchial radiation therapy, distance radiation therapy and laser destructionof the tumor, is studied. The indications to endobronchial radiation therapy are formulated. The suggested method of the endobronchial and combined radiation treatment significantly extended the possibilities of organsaving treatment of patients with primarily multiple metachronous and synchronous cancer and made it possible to formulate the new approaches to the radical treatment of patients with locally spread cancer of trachea.
