The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of FORESEAL with stapling alone or associated with tissue sealant or glue in terms of air leakage duration after lung resection for cancer. Hypothesis: to show a significant difference of 1 day in the average duration of air leakage between the 2 groups with a standard deviation of 3 (α =0.05 and β=0.10).

Air leak (presence or absence of bubbles) will be assessed from T0: one hour after extubation, and then twice daily (morning and evening). The mean duration of post-operative air leakage will be calculated from T0 to the last day air leak observed.
Timeframe: from T0 to the last day air leak observed
