“…Large size, difficult location, or presence of significant amount of granulation tissue may also limit the use of this method. Recently, the use of Nd:YAG and holmium:neodymium-yttrium, aluminum, garnet (Ho:YAG) laser lithotripsy for large or transbronchial broncholiths has been described, both with a high treatment success rate [ 10 , 11 ]. Both laser types have good coagulation properties, which minimizes the amount of bleeding encountered.…”
