Transudative chylothorax in a liver cirrhosis patient: A case report
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022 Chylothorax defines chyle in the pleural space, usually from defects in thoracic duct. Chylothoraces are usually exudative, as defined by light's criteria but in rare instances, chylothoraces can be transudative.

The Use of Thoracic Ultrasound to Predict Transudative and Exudative Pleural Effusion
POCUS Journal, 2021 Objectives: Pleural effusion is a common reason for hospital admission with thoracentesis often required to diagnose an underlying cause. This study aimed to determine if the imaging characteristics of TUS effectively differentiates between transudative

Validity of pleural lactate dehydrogenase measurements in assessment of pleural effusions [PDF]
Universa Medicina, 2012 Background Pleural effusions are classified into transudates and exudates based on Light’s criteria, but the main disadvantage of Light’s criteria is the misclassification of transudates as exudates in about 20% of cases.
