[Use of the double-lumen tracheostomy tube (Tracheopart) in bronchial stump insufficiency in long-term artificial respiration. Case report].
In long-term artificial respiration an insufficiency of the bronchial stump after pneumectomy must be considered as a result of the positive pressure respiration. Respirator treatment can be continued by means of a twin-lumen tracheostomy tube, the bronchial fistula being relieved of the stress while offering it an opportunity to close spontaneously. Good experience collected with the practical use of this method points to its suitability in prophylaxis as well.
