Refractory Chylothorax in Primary Mediastinal Large B‐Cell Lymphoma: A Case of Superior Vena Cava Obstruction Thrombosis‐Induced Lymphatic Leak Salvaged by Mechanical Thrombectomy

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
A patient with mediastinal lymphoma developed refractory chylothorax due to SVC thrombosis. Mechanical thrombectomy restored venous patency and resolved the chylothorax, avoiding thrombolysis and upfront stenting. ABSTRACT Chylothorax is an uncommon presentation of mediastinal lymphoma, typically attributed to direct tumour invasion.
