Multifocal squamous cell carcinoma in the bronchus of the anterior segment of the right lung and in the subsegmental bronchus of the posterior subsegment of the left upper lobe was diagnosed in a 61-year- old man. The right-sided upper lobectomy followed by Nd:YAG laser photocoagulation of the superficial cancer in the left side resulted in total eradication of the tumor. Subsequent follow-up examinations for three years have revealed no relapse of tumor growth.
