The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1993
Chylothorax complicating pulmonary resections is exceptional and management of this complication remains controversial. We report a case of chylothorax after a right pneumonectomy and radical subcarinal nodal dissection. Successful nonoperative management consisted of controlled tube drainage, fasting, and total parenteral nutritional support for a ...

Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2015
Chylothorax is an unusual but serious complication of thoracic surgical procedures, and may carry considerable morbidity if not addressed in a timely fashion. Thoracic surgeons should be able to promptly diagnose this complication, and understand the implications of prolonged chyle loss to the patient. Conservative measures are often successful; direct

Critical Care Medicine, 1985
Chylous leakage from the thoracic duct into the pleural space may occur after any type of thoracic surgery; however, there are few reports of this condition after coronary artery bypass grafting. A case of chylothorax after combined coronary bypass and mitral valve replacement is reported to illustrate a discussion of its pathologic basis, diagnosis ...

Chylothorax and Pseudochylothorax
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1985Both chylothorax and pseudochylothorax are characterized by milky or turbid pleural effusions. The importance of distinguishing these two conditions cannot be overemphasized because the prognosis and management are different.

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2000
Nontraumatic chylothorax is an uncommon condition of thoracic or abdominal origin caused by multiple disorders, of which malignancy is by far the most frequent one. Because gross appearance of pleural fluid is frequently misleading, pleural fluid and serum lipid analysis is required for its diagnosis.

To the Editor .—The article by Kurtz and Hsu in theArchives(115:73-74, 1980) regarding resolution of chylothorax after positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation is enlightening and a logical approach to the clinical problem. Several years ago, Bittar and I 1 undertook to determine the mechanism by which patients receiving PEEP ventilation ...

ACHYLOTHORAX IS AN ACCUMULATION of lymphatic fluid that collects in the pleural space. It is the most common cause of a large pleural effusion in the newborn.1,2 Estimated incidences vary from 1 in 10,000 deliveries to 1 in 2,000 admissions to the NICU.2,3 Chylothorax may be unilateral or, infrequently, bilateral and can occur spontaneously or be ...
