3 Fig 2 (Top) Vacuum force drawing a portion of lung into silicone sleeve and introducer. (Middle) Silicone sleeve deployed onto lung. Captured appendant tissue 7 to 10 cm long. (Bottom) Proximal section of deployed sleeve and compressed tissue following resection of the distal portion of appendant tissue and sleeve. Proximal compression band, two U-stitch patterned suture ports, and silicone compression lugs secure compression sleeve position. “Investigational device, limited by federal law to investigational use.” The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (03) )
