From January 1983 to October 1989, 221 bronchogenic carcinomas were surgically treated at our Department. Different stapling techniques were employed in 153 cases: 138 stapled sutures of main and lobar bronchi, 33 stapled parenchymal sutures and 21 stapled sutures of the pulmonary artery. Stapling-related complications were observed in 3 patients: 1 bronchopleural post-pneumonectomy fistula (0.72%); 2 persisting air leakages following stapled parenchymal suture (6%). The use of vascular staplers, though, has never been associated with complications. The advantages related to the use of stapling devices are represented by lower air leakage and bleeding rates, with a reduced operative trauma; on the other hand, disadvantages seem to be more theoretical than realistic. At our Department stapling devices nowadays represent the choice in thoracic surgery either for main and lobar bronchi or parenchymal sutures.
