Abstract

The review explores the evolving roles and comparative effectiveness of rigid versus flexible bronchoscopy in interventional pulmonology. This topic is particularly timely due to recent technological advancements and the growing body of literature highlighting the strengths and limitations of each technique. Recent literature reveals significant advancements in rigid and flexible bronchoscopy, with studies comparing their efficacy, safety profiles, and clinical outcomes. Key themes include improved diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities, procedural innovations, and patient-centered outcomes. While rigid and flexible bronchoscopies have distinct advantages, their complementary use can enhance patient care. Future research should focus on developing minimally invasive, high-precision bronchoscopic tools, comparative studies to inform evidence-based practice, exploring hybrid approaches that combine the strengths of both techniques, and enhancing patient-centered outcomes through improved procedural protocols, education, and technologies.
