bronchial stump closure with amniotic membrane in animal model
background: coverage of the bronchial stumps (bss) with adjacent tissues can improve healing and reduce bronchial complications in complex thoracic surgery. there is no evidence for the application of human amnion allograft for prevention of air leak from the bs. the comparison of the amniotic membrane (am) and pleural patch for bs healing after lobectomy in dogs was our aim in this study. mate...
متن کاملComparative study of the resistance of manual and mechanical sutures in the bronchial stump of dogs submitted to left pneumonectomy.
OBJECTIVE To compare the resistance of manual suture with that of mechanical suture immediately after the suture of the left bronchial stump of dogs submitted to pneumonectomy. METHODS A total of 15 mixed-breed dogs of both genders, each weighing between 8 and 23 kg, were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group I (n = 7), the bronchial stump was sutured manually (the Sweet method) and, in gr...
متن کاملVideo-mediastinoscopic resection of a long bronchial stump and reclosure of bronchial insufficiency after pneumonectomy.
Bronchial stump insufficiency after pneumonectomy is a severe problem and there is still debate about the appropriate method (transthoracic or transsternal) for reclosure. Access through a sterile operative field for a successful redo-procedure seems to be important so an alternative to the open methods could be the video-mediastinoscopy as it allows approaching the bronchial stump via the medi...
متن کاملComparison of different bronchial closure techniques following pneumonectomy in dogs
The comparison of the histologic healing and bronchopleural fistula (BPF) complications encountered with three different BS closure techniques (manual suture, stapler and manual suture plus tissue flab) after pneumonectomy in dogs was investigated for a one-month period. The dogs were separated into two groups: group I (GI) (n = 9) and group II (GII) (n = 9). Right and left pneumonectomies were...
