Fiberoptic bronchial blockade in a small bronchopleural fistula

RS Lan, CH Lee, YH Tsai, WJ Wang and CH Chang
Department of Medicine, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China.

This simple and relatively noninvasive therapeutic approach is an effective and safe alternative in treating selective patients with a bronchopleural fistula.
