Video-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...
متن کاملRoutine reinforcement of bronchial stump after lobectomy or pneumonectomy with pedicled pericardial flap (PPF)
The results of 25 cases underwent a pedicled pericardial flap coverage for the bronchial stump after lobectomy or pneumonectomy were compared with those of 25 patients who received no coverage for the bronchial stump. Operative and perioperative complications were recorded, and patients were followed up for a mean of 30 ± 15 days. The analysis revealed that the routine coverage of the bronchial...
متن کاملThe Effect of Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma on Bronchial Stump Tissue Granulation after Pneumonectomy: Experimental Study
Objectives. Recent advances in perioperative management, antibiotics, and surgical materials, including mechanical staplers, have decreased the operative risk of pulmonary resection. However, bronchopleural fistula can still occur in some instances, the occurrence often being lethal. This study investigated whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) promotes granulation of the bronchial stump after pne...
متن کاملVideo-assisted contralateral treatment for bronchial stump diastasis after left pneumonectomy.
Postoperative bronchial stump failure is a life-threatening complication, and several surgical approaches and procedures have been developed to close the stump. In this report, we describe a case of left mainstem bronchial stump diastasis after pneumonectomy for lung cancer, in which the bronchial stump was re-closed using a contralateral approach with video-assisted thoracic surgery, with good...
