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; and treating the target tissue through the access channel defined by the previously positioned elongate instrument leading to the target tissue. |
