Broncho-pleural fistulae (BPF) are recognised as a rare complication following pneumonectomy. We describe a patient, who after failing conservative treatment, underwent closure of a persistent fistula with an atrial septal defect (ASD) occluder. Additionally we review the literature regarding management of BPF and the emerging role of cardiac defect closure devices as a possible treatment option.
