Apart from attempts to close the fistula, emphasis is placed on preventive measures, early treatment with antibiotics, drainage of the empyema and aggressive nutritional and rehabilitative support. F...
متن کاملUse 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 کاملReduction of persistent air leak with endoscopic valve implants.
The standard management of air leaks due to persistent bronchopleural fistula involves chest drainage and occasionally pleurodesis, with intractable cases requiring surgical decortication or surgical repair. However, some of these patients may be at high risk for surgery, particularly if they have already had thoracic surgery or have other medical problems; for this group there is a need for le...
