Abstract:
Objective To assess the incidence and prognosis of the bronchial anastomosis complications following lung transplantation.Methods Between January 2003 and July 2016,all 81 cases after lung transplantation at Department of Thoracic Surgery of Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital,Tongji University were retrospectively analyzed.We analyzed the incidence and prognosis of postoperative complications of bronchial anastomosis in lung transplant recipients.Results The overall incidence of bronchial anastomotic complications was 30.9%,including anastomotic infection (18.5 %),anastomotic fistula (4.9 %),stenosis (6.2 %),and bronchomalacia (1.2 %).One case died of infection,and 3 cases died of anastomotic fistula.Conclusion The main bronchial anastomosis complications occurred early,and the prognosis was acceptable.
