Abstract Objective To study the effect of high-dose-rate brachytherapy plus external beam radiotherapy (HDRB plus EBR) for re-stricture induced by granulation hyperplasia after SEMS (self-expandable metallic stents) implantation for benign tracheobronchial stricture. Methods 4 cases with re-stricture induced by granulation hyperplasia after SEMS implantation for benign tracheobronchial stricture were treated with high-dose-rate brachytherapy plus external beam radiotherapy, and the effect was evaluated according to the clinical symptoms alleviation and bronchoscopy result. Results 3 cases showed obvious dyspnea alleviation, and the granulation decreased obviously. Conclusion This study indicated that HDRB plus EBR might provide an effective therapeutic alternative for obstructive tracheal granulation hyperplasia.
