In PSP patients undergoing lung bullectomy with pleurodesis, using of polyglactin mesh coverage the entire lung facilitates less operative time, less intra-operative blood loss and shorter both length of stay and chest tube duration. Polyglactin mesh should be considered as an alternative option for surgical pleurodesis.
