[Endoscopic treatment of bronchopleural fistula using fibrin biological adhesive]

Three cases are reported of bronchopleural fistula successfully resolved by using biological adhesives through the intrabronchial way. In the three cases the rigid bronchoscope was used to prepare the field and the passage of the adhesive material. The results obtained allow the consideration of this procedure as useful for small fistulas and as a initial therapeutical approach for other fistulas due to the small morbidity rate associated with this procedure compared with others.
