According to the reporter, during ablation on left upper lobe (lul) anterior ground-glass opacity (ggo), the ablation zone was not larger than expected.The patient had 2 ablations and a segmentectomy in the same anesthetic event.No air leak was noted at the completion of this procedure.A ct was performed several days later because of no-resolving air leak that developed on postoperative day (pod) 1.Ct demonstrated the broncho-pulmonary fistula.Then 2 endobronchial valves were placed to treat the bp fistula.Thevalves will stay in place for 6 weeks.Then a repeat ct will be performed and if the tissue was well healed the valves will be removed.The procedure was able to be completed with the incident device.The event was a known procedural related patient outcome.
