In this case report we present a novel treatment for bronchial fistula after lobectomy. The patient had right upper lobectomy for T1 N0 M0 peripheral adenocarcinoma and he had been reexplored 4 days later for massive air leak in another chest surgery department. After the reoperation the bronchial fistula persisted and the patient was admitted to our department. Nineteen days after the reoperation, bronchoscopy confirmed that the bronchial stump was totally opened. A sleeve resection to the right main broncus including the fistulous stump of right upper lobe was performed.
