Abstract

The article describes a clinical case of successful treatment of a 13-year-old female patient with post-tuberculous stenosis of the left main bronchus of grade 3-4 using a self-fixing endoprosthesis. As a result of 24 months of anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy and 18 months of endoprosthetics, it was possible to cure tuberculosis of the lungs and bronchi, restore the function of the left main bronchus, and avoid organ-removing surgery in the child. The method of treatment with self-fixing endoprostheses in a pediatric phthisiological practice was used for the first time.
