Abstract:
The invention provides methods and devices for creating a localized pleurodesis between the thoracic wall and the lung such that a ventilation bypass conduit may be introduced into the lung through the thoracic wall and visceral membrane without causing a pneumothorax. A catheter or implantable device delivers the pleurodesis agent to the pleural cavity.
