5 Fig 4 (A) Surveillance bronchoscopy performed immediately after implantation demonstrates a patent lumen. (B) Bronchoscopy performed 1 week postoperatively demonstrates a patent lumen with appropriate healing and some mucus. (C) Bronchoscopy performed 2 weeks postoperatively shows significant granulation tissue formation.
