Abstract
A brief introduction of the main effects on the tissue produced by the laser beams is made with emphasis on the lasers applications in bronchology. Author's experience on the application of lasers in bronchology is synthesized outlining the results obtained by using a Nd:YAG flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope in bleeding and relieving air way obstruction by tumors or strictures.
