  • Title: [Technical aids by staplers in lung surgery].
    Author: Schröder DW.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir Suppl II Verh Dtsch Ges Chir; 1989; ():389-91. PubMed ID: 2577572.
    Abstract:
    Linear stapling devices ensure a safe resection in lung surgery. They are not only convenient for closing the bronchial stump, but also highly efficient for dividing the main pulmonary artery or lobar veins. The superiority of stapling is immediately obvious in the division of fissures and tangential resections of lung parenchyma. Bronchopleural fistulas can be easily avoided. The safe and appropriate use of stapling divices makes a standardized procedure in lung surgery possible.
