Apr 10, 2026
Tirunelveli (Tamil Nadu) [India], April 10: Doctors at Kauvery Hospital performed a minimally invasive bronchoscopic procedure, using a thin, camera-equipped tube called a bronchoscope to examine and treat the airways, to diagnose and remove a tumour that had developed inside the lung airways, giving relief to a 32-year-old man who had been suffering from persistent cough for more than two months. The removal of the tumour immediately restored normal airflow and ended the patient's cough.
