Popis: 66 patients were pneumonectomized and a new method of bronchial stump plasty was used. The stump was forced with the help of an omental flap in 31 patients, pericardial flap was used in 35 cases. The use of omental flap provides no technical difficulties and helps to avoid negative consequences of pneumonectomy. Bronchial stump failure was twice as lower after omentoplasty, rather then after pericardioplasty (6.5%).
