    Author: Pop D, Nadeemy AS, Venissac N, Mouroux J.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2011 Jul; 13(1):107-8. PubMed ID: 21388978.
    Abstract:
    The postpneumonectomy bronchopleural fistula (BPF) remains a difficult challenge for the thoracic surgeon. We report the case of a very late-onset (60 years) left BPF managed by video-assisted mediastinoscopy discussing the direct consequences of this complication in the postpneumonectomy period.
