RESUMEN
Un varón de 77 años con múltiples factores de riesgo desarrolló 13 días después de una neumonectomía derecha una fístula broncopleural de 8mm. Fue reoperado utilizando un colgajo de epiplon para cubrir el muñón bronquial y el mediastino sin suturarlo al muñon bronquial. El colgajo de epiplon simplemente se colocó sobre el mediastino cubriendo ampliamente el muñón. Permaneció sujeto en su posición con varios puntos sobre el orificio transdiafragmático y pericardio y con múltiples compresas empaquetadas ocupando toda la cavidad pleural para comprimir el epiplon desplegado sobre el mediastino. El drenaje torácico se conectó a aspiración para evitar acúmulo de derrame pleural infectado y la toracotomía se cerró. Las compresas que formaban el packing intratorácico se cambiaron cada dos días. El colgajo de epiplon quedó agarrado firmemente al mediastino y la fístula del bronquio derecho cerró completamente. El paciente fue dado de alta 14 días después de la omentoplastia y en el seguimiento no aparecieron signos de recidiva de la fístula broncopleural
ABSTRACT
A 77-year-old male patient with high risks factors developed 13 days after pneumonectomy a 8mm-size bronchopleural fistula. He was reoperated on using an omentum flap to cover the bronchial stump and the mediastinum without suturing the bronchial stump. The omentum flap was just laid on the right mediastinal site to cover widely the stump, and was kept in place by applying some stiches to the diaphragm and to the pericardium, and also several dressings inside the postpneumonectomy thoracic cavity to completely pack the omentum against the mediastinum. A chest tube was connected to suction to avoid accumulation of infected pleural effusion, and thoracostomy was closed. The packing of intrathoracic dressings were changed every 2 days. The omentum flap got intensely attached to the mediastinum and the right main bronchial fistula completely healed. Patient was discharged 14 days after omentoplasty, and no signs of fistula relapse appeared in the follow-up
