    Area of Science:

    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Surgical Technology

    Background:

    • Mechanical stapling devices are increasingly utilized in pulmonary surgery.
    • Their application in closing bronchial stumps and pulmonary vessels requires careful evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the efficacy and safety of mechanical stapling devices (TA 30, 55, and 90) in pulmonary surgery.
    • To assess complications and postoperative outcomes associated with their use.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 171 pulmonary operations.
    • Analysis of stapler use for bronchial stump closure (95 cases) and pulmonary vessel closure (100 cases).

    Main Results:

    • No complications were directly attributed to the stapling instruments.
