Electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopic airway recanalization in patients with vanishing bronchus

ENB is a feasible method of airway recanalization in select patients with bronchial occlusion after lung transplantation. ENB recanalization spares lung parenchyma and avoids risks associated with surgical resection and retransplantation. This novel technique can be added to the armamentarium for thoracic surgeons who diagnose and treat this complicated problem.
