Bronchial anastomotic stenosis is a potentially serious complication of
sleeve resection. A Silastic endobronchial stent that prevents progressive
narrowing at the anastomotic site is described. Insertion of the stent
offers a simple and effective treatment that allows improved pulmonary
performance, clearing of infection, and good quality of life. The long-term
prognosis, however, remains questionable.
