title: [Clinical prognosis of principal bronchus stump failure in lung cancer patients].
abstract: Use of vascular flap to cover the principal bronchus stump for prevention of bronchopleural fistula is generally known. To provide objective evidence on relevant indications, a multivariate analysis of 14 potential risk factors of suture failure was undertaken. Right-side surgery and preoperative irradiation appeared to be significant (p<0,05) factors of high risk (over 25%) for stump suture failure. Either risk factor may be regarded as indication for making preventive plastic cover.
