Brief Summary: The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety of the Progel® PALS, including the Progel® Extended Applicator Spray Tips, in sealing or reducing intraoperative air leaks in patients undergoing video assisted or robotic assisted thoracoscopic (VATS/Robotic) surgeries. The data collected in this clinical study will supplement the Approved PMA P010047 Progel® PALS product.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective, open label, multi-center clinical study designed to assess the safety of the Progel® PALS product, including the Extended Applicator Spray Tip, when used in Video Assisted and Robotic Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery. The study will treat approximately 105 evaluable subjects at up to 15 U.S. sites. All subjects will provide informed consent prior to enrollment in the study. Patients who have met the initial screening criteria and who have a visible pleural air leak which requires treatment with a sealant, after standard closure techniques are used (standard sutures, staples or devices supplied by the hospital for thoracoscopic surgery) will be eligible for study participation. If the subject is treated, the surgeon will utilize Progel® PALS to the same sites originally treated with standard technique.
