ABSTRACT
We present a minimal invasive technique for the treatment of broncho-pleural fistula (BPF) after pulmonary lobectomy with lung cancer. 2 cases of BPF were found at the 4th and 7th day after pulmonary lobectomy respectively. They were reoperated on by VATS, direct resuture of stump and consolidation with acrylic or fibrin glue. Both cases were cured. Authors consider mentioned procedure might be a feasible therapeutic approach for early broncho-pleural fistula.
