The usage of autosuture instruments and techniques in resection of bronchovascular structures gained increasing acceptance amongst surgeons in the recent years. The manipulation of these devices are simple, safe, and shortens operating time by avoiding numerous ties and sutures. We have been using autosuture instruments in most of pulmonary resections in Yongdong Severance hospital, and had a satisfactory results. However, we recently have experienced post-pneumonectomy rupture of left pulmonary vein on postoperative one day where the rupture site was in the border of left atrium and left pulmonary vein where the stapler was fired. The patient underwent emergency operation to control massive bleeding and successfully managed by left atrial suture.
