    摘要: Disclosed are various disease indications and treatment methods that benefit from selective lung region isolation. A lung region is bronchially isolated by regulating the flow of fluid to and from the lung region, such as by implanting one or more bronchial isolation devices into one or more bronchial passageways that feed air to the lung region. The bronchial isolation devices can comprise, for example, one-way valves, two-way valves, occluders or blockers, ligating clips, glues, sealants, and sclerosing agents.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of regulating fluid flow for a targeted lung region. The method comprises injecting a therapeutic agent into the targeted lung region. The therapeutic agent induces a reaction in lung tissue of the targeted lung region or in a collateral pathway to the lung region to reduce collateral fluid flow into the targeted lung region. In one aspect, the method additionally comprises deploying a bronchial isolation device in the direct pathway to regulate fluid flow to the targeted lung region through the direct pathway. The therapeutic agent can comprise, for example, a sclerosing agent that induces a reaction that causes sclerosis in the lung tissue.

    摘要: A desired fluid flow dynamic to a lung region can be achieved by deploying various combinations of flow control devices and bronchial isolation devices in one or more bronchial passageways that communicate with the lung region. The flow control devices are implanted in channels that are formed in the walls of bronchial passageways of the lung. The flow control devices regulate fluid flow through the channels. The bronchial isolation devices are implanted in lumens of bronchial passageways that communicate with the lung region in order to regulate fluid flow to and from the lung region through the bronchial passageways.

    摘要: Disclosed is a delivery system for insertion into a lung. The delivery system includes an elongate endoscope having a proximal end and a distal end and defining an internal lumen. The endoscope is configured to articulate in one or more directions. The system further includes a catheter that includes an elongate shaft sized to be inserted through the internal lumen of the endoscope. The catheter has a shape that aids in the articulation of the distal end of the endoscope when the catheter is positioned inside the endoscope.
