A Prospective, Multi-Center Evaluation of Endo GIA Staplers With Endo GIA Single Use Loading Units (SULUs) With Duet TRS TM in a Pulmonary Resection


Inclusion Criteria:

cancer that will be resected

- The patient is scheduled to receive intra-operative brachytherapy

- The patient has other severe illnesses that would preclude surgery such as unstable
