Özet

Successful management of bronchopleural fistulas (BPF) after pulmonary resection remains a challenge in thoracic surgical practice. Several techniques have been developed for the closure of bronchopleural fistulas after pneumonectomy. In this article, we present a 57-years-old female case of treatment of post-pneumonectomy BPF using a stent supported by polyglactin mesh through open window thoracostomy with the aid of bronchoscopy.
