Tracheal occlusion is NOT a procedure to treat a tracheal occlusion but is a procedure on fetuses where they intentionally inject liquids through the trachea and inflate to promote lung growth. "Bít" is a verb which implies intention. "Tắc" is a medical condition that needs to be treated which in this case it is not.
endoluminal indicates the usage of a tubular device to assist in the endoscopic surgery.
