摘要
Prolonged air leak after thoracic procedures was success fully treated in 11 of 12 patients under local anesthesia using video thoracoscopic instillation of fibrin sealant over the site of the leak. No related complications occured. This method should be considered an effective option for the treatment of persistent pulmonary air leaks. (C) 1999 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons.
