Figure Legend Snippet: The detailed procedures in treating the postoperative bronchopleural fistula with a pushable Embolization Coil. (A) The bronchoscopy found the anastomotic nails and suspected fistula opening (black arrow) in the bronchial stump of the left upper lobe (intrinsic branch). (B) Forceps occlusion testing confirmed the fistula opening in the intrinsic branch, stopping the air leak from the chest tube. (C) The first half of a pushable Embolization Coil was delivered into the fistula opening via a 5 Fr angioplasty catheter (black arrow). (D) The transbronchial insertion of the pushable Embolization Coil successfully occluded the fistula opening, with the other half deployed proximal to the segmental branch. (E,F) The schema and chest computed tomography illustrated how the fistula tract was surrounded by the coil’s curves (black arrow) and well-balanced on both fistula openings “like a sandwich”.
Techniques Used: Computed Tomography

Techniques Used: In Situ
Figure Legend Snippet: A 44-year-old woman with persistent air leak after left upper lobectomy for lung adenocarcinoma in situ received the treatment of a single pushable Embolization Coil. (A,B) Chest computed tomography (CT) scans (axial and sagittal planes) demonstrated compressive atelectasis (blue asterisk) and pneumothorax in the left lung, which communicated directly (black arrows) with the bronchial stump. (C,D) Follow-up CT scans (axial and coronal planes) obtained 1 month after treatment demonstrated the complete closure of the fistula tract by the curved Embolization Coil which formed a tight occluding mass “like a sandwich” (black arrows), resolving the pneumothorax with the expansion of the collapsed lung tissue.
Techniques Used: In Situ, Computed Tomography
