  • Title: Closure of a bronchopleural fistula using glue.
    Author: Hamid UI, Jones JM.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2011 Aug; 13(2):117-8. PubMed ID: 21546373.
    Abstract:
    Bronchopleural fistula after pneumonectomy remains a challenge after lung cancer surgery. It is associated with high mortality, morbidity and prolonged hospital stay necessitating further thoracotomy. We describe a technique using intra-mucosal injection of glue to close a bronchopleural fistula via bronchoscopy.
