Abstract
Bronchopleural fistula is an abnormal sinus tract that forms between the bronchus and the thoracic cavity. It is most commonly caused by thoracic surgery. Patients often have severe pulmonary and thoracic infections, which seriously affect the quality of life and survival rate. Most of these patients do not have a second operation chance, so the bronchopleural fistula becomes a thorny problem in the clinical practice. The clinical data of 9 patients with postoperative bronchopleural fistula admitted to Anhui Provincial Chest Hospital were reviewed and analyzed. We analyzed and summarized the clinical experience of successful occlusion with a ventricular septal defect(VSD) device, which provided a potentially effective treatment for postoperative bronchopleural fistula.
