Use of Amplatzer device for endobronchial closure of bronchopleural fistulas.
Postpneumonectomy bronchopleural fistulas (BPFs) remain difficult management problems associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Traditional therapies have included primary repair or delayed closure with the creation of an Eloesser cavity and tissue flap reinforcement. New bronchoscopic modalities have included the use of bioglues, stents, and coils. We describe another additional, l...
متن کاملEfficacy of bronchoscopic closure of a bronchopleural fistula with amplatzer devices: long-term follow-up.
BACKGROUND The development of a bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. We have developed a minimally invasive method of bronchoscopic BPF closure using Amplatzer devices (AD) and Amplatzer vascular plugs (AVP), with excellent short-term results. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present report was to explore the long-term outcome of patients treated by ...
متن کاملAcute Postpneumonectomy Empyema with Bronchopleural Fistula Treated with Vacuum-assisted Closure Device
Postpneumonectomy empyema is a life-threatening complication, which is often related with a bronchopleural fistula. After surgical repair of fistula, sterilization of infected pleural cavity is important and usually carried out by long-term cyclic irrigation. We report a case in which vacuum-assisted closure device was successfully applied to sterilize the pleural cavity and obliterate bronchop...
متن کامل[Percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defect with an Amplatzer device].
We present a series of 4 patients in whom a ventricular septal defect (VSD) was closed with an Amplatzer muscular VSD device during cardiac catheterization. In one patient with type I truncus arteriosus and subarterial VSD, closure of a wide apical defect was done to allow further surgical correction while avoiding left ventricular ventriculotomy. The second patient had congenitally corrected t...
متن کامل[Transcatheter closure of aorto-left atrial fistula using an Amplatzer device].
Aorto-left atrial fistulas are rare. We describe the case of a patient in whom transcatheter closure of an aorto-left atrial fistula was carried out using an Amplatzer septal occluder. The patient had previously undergone cardiac surgery twice because of a recurrent left atrial myxoma. Closure of this type of fistula using a transcatheter device should be considered when the location and size o...
