Methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, and/or treating tissue through an opening or port through an airway wall are provided herein.
1. A method of accessing and treating a target tissue in a lung, the method comprising: creating an opening through an airway wall at a target site with a hole-making instrument, the opening leading to the target tissue;tunneling from the opening in the airway wall to the target tissue by advancing
1. A method of accessing and treating a target tissue in a lung, the method comprising: creating an opening through an airway wall at a target site with a hole-making instrument, the opening leading to the target tissue;tunneling from the opening in the airway wall to the target tissue by advancing an elongate instrument and a dissector positioned therein from the opening to the target tissue;removing the dissector from the elongate instrument such that the elongate instrument defines an access channel to the target tissue; andtreating the target tissue through the access channel defined by the previously positioned elongate instrument leading to the target tissue. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of treating comprises removing the target tissue. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the removing is carried out by snaring the target tissue with a tissue-snare catheter. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein the removing is carried out by morcellating the target tissue with a morcellating-tip catheter. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of treating comprises ablating the target tissue with an energy-delivering catheter. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of treating comprises destroying the target tissue. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the destroying comprises injecting an agent into the target tissue. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the agent comprises at least one of a chemotherapy drug and a radioactive substance. 9. The method of claim 6, wherein the destroying comprises advancing an implant into the target tissue. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the implant is one selected from the group consisting of a capsule, coil, and electrode. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the implant is a capsule, and the capsule is configured to release radiation. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the capsule is activated by a mechanism selected from the group consisting of chemical and electronic mechanisms. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the capsule is activated electronically from an energy source outside the body. 14. The method of claim 9, wherein the implant is an electrode and configured to deliver alternating current to the tumor. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the electrode is activated from an external source selected from the group consisting of an electromagnetic and magnetic field. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein the electrode is excited repeatedly. 17. The method of claim 1, further comprising dilating the opening with a balloon catheter; and performing imaging to guide the elongate instrument to the target tissue. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein the target tissue is a tumor. 19. The method of claim 1, further comprising locating the target site on the airway wall, wherein the target site is in a location that allows for creation of the opening leading to the target tissue and for advancement of the elongate instrument through the opening to the target tissue along a substantially straight path. 20. The method of claim 1, further comprising articulating the elongate instrument.
