[Closure of the bronchial stump: suturing or stapling? (author's transl)].
In 1016 pulmonary resections we had 2,6% bronchial fistulae. 447 times we used interrupted suture (2,9% of bronchial stump insufficiency) and 542 times we used the Soviet bronchus stapling machine UKB 25 or 16 with 2,2% of fistulae.
