title: [Errors and dangers in use of the surgical stapler in lung surgery].
abstract: The staple closure of the bronchus, like the manual technique, depends on some essential prerequisites: vascular supply, the length and thickness of the bronchial stump, the resection line, the type of stapler and the size of staples used. GIA 55 or 90 instruments allow safe and simple closure of lung parenchyma. Familiarity with the stapling technique is essential for success.
