As medical science has advanced, the incidence of central airway lesions, traditionally the primary focus of interventional pulmonology, has decreased significantly. However, the large population suffering from chronic airway diseases, coupled with unmet treatment needs and a high demand for new technologies and methods, has greatly driven the innovation and application of interventional respiratory techniques. The development and clinical application of techniques such as lung volume reduction, targeted lung denervation, pulsed electric field technology, bronchial thermoplasty, and regenerative medicine for chronic airway diseases are providing new treatment options. Chronic airway diseases are becoming a new frontier in interventional pulmonology.
随着时代的发展，作为介入呼吸病学经典主战场的中央气道病变已明显减少。慢性气道疾病庞大的患病人群，治疗上未被满足、对新技术新方法的巨大需求，极大地推动了呼吸介入技术的创新和应用。针对慢性气道疾病的肺减容术、靶肺去神经支配、脉冲电场技术、支气管热成形术以及再生医学等技术的开发并应用于临床，为慢性气道疾病的治疗提供了新的选择和希望，慢性气道疾病也将是介入呼吸病学的主战场之一。.
