    Abstract:
    The paper presents the data of a follow-up of 51 patients in whom a bronchial stump suture was additionally fixed at surgery by applying Tochocomb plates (in 30 patients) or an autoangiograft from the removed lung (in 21 patients) in order to prevent a bronchial fistula. The preliminary findings were positively appraised. The authors recommend that this procedure be used in phthisiosurgery and surgical pulmonology.
