Hemothorax after emphysematous bullectomy using a linear staple device with bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid felt

Abstract
A linear stapler with bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid felt is widely used during the resection of emphysematous lung. Currently, an improved staple device with polyglycolic acid felt is being used owing to a history of complications, such as bleeding, that was associated with the previous model. Here, we report a case of a 69-year-old man who presented to our department for treatment of left lower lobe lung cancer using the new staple device. A left lower lobectomy and emphysematous bullectomy were performed. Reoperation was performed following the diagnosis of a postoperative hemothorax. During that operation, a staple with reinforcing material was found to be in contact with the proliferating vessels on the lung surface, resulting in an active bleed. The vessel was cauterized, and the bleeding stopped. This is the first case study to report bleeding associated with the improved staple device.
