Gelatin-resorcin-formal (GRF) glue is a new biological adhesive agent with the advantage of sealing efficacy. We report a successful closure of bronchopleural fistula using this agent. A 77-year-old man underwent cavernostomy for lung aspergillosis. After surgery, he developed methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-empyema with bronchopleural fistula. Thoracoplasty and muscular plombage were performed for filling up the cavity and closure of bronchial fistula. But the fistula relapsed 3 days after surgery. GRF glue was injected into the residual cavity, then air-leakage was completely disappeared with tight adhesion of cavity wall. We consider this agent is useful material for the closure of bronchopleural fistula.
