摘要
Lung volume reduction surgery has recently become an option for the management of patients with severe emphysema. The procedure consist of resecting non-functional lung in order to improve respiratory mechanics. Because postoperative prolonged air leakage is a serious complication of the operation, most surgeons now use staplers reinforced with bovine pericardial strips to seal the lung. We report a patient where the migration of an intact pericardium patch caused an obstructive pneumonia and recurrent hemoptysis over several years. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
