Does External Pleural Suction Reduce Prolonged Air Leak After Lung Resection? Results From the AirINTrial After 500 Randomized Cases

Background External pleural suction is used after lung resection to promote lung expansion and minimize air leak duration. Published randomized trials failed to prove this advantage but they are limited in number and underpowered in many cases. The aim of the AirINTrial study was to test the hypothe...
