  • Title: [A transsternal method for stopping pulmonary hemorrhage in patients with superior-lobe destructive pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Savenkov IuF.
    Journal: Lik Sprava; 1998 Aug; (6):113-4. PubMed ID: 9844892.
    Abstract:
    A less traumatic and safe way was sought for the superlobular bronchus and artery occlusion that permits the hemostatic effect to be quickly achieved, the risk and duration of the operation to be minimized. The approach consists in the use of transsternal approach instead of a conventional intercostal approach in 5 patients with superlobular fibrotic cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis, its positive effects being lessening of traumatic harm, improving of safety of operation, together with reduction of intraoperative time.
