Percutaneous sclerosing injection to the thoracic duct under CT guidance for cervical chylous leakage post thyroidectomy: A case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
Chylous leakage after thyroidectomy is rare, and almost all patients with this complication can be treated conservatively. However, in patients with high-flow leakage, treatments can be complicated.

Effect of preoperative thoracic duct drainage on canine kidney transplantation [PDF]

, 1996
Chronic drainage of the thoracic duct to the esophagus was developed in dogs, and its efficacy in immunomodulation was tested using kidney transplantation. Compared to 9.7 days in the control, the mean animal survival was prolonged to 9.9 days, 17.8 days,

Chylothorax associated with lymphatic reflux in a thoracic duct tributary after lung cancer surgery

Thoracic Cancer, 2021
Chyle leaks are attributed to damage to the thoracic duct itself or its tributaries during surgery. Chylothorax after lung cancer surgery can occur due to damaged thoracic duct tributaries; however, little is known of the mechanism involved.

DR-bearing T lymphocytes in thoracic duct lymph [PDF]

, 1981
T cells having DR antigens were shown to be present in high numbers in the thoracic duct lymph of patients undergoing long-term drainage. As drainage progresses the proportion of T DR cells in the lymph increases to levels as high as 70% at 6 weeks ...

Intraoperative visualization of morphological patterns of the thoracic duct by subcutaneous inguinal injection of indocyanine green in esophagectomy for esophageal cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, 2022
To prevent chylothorax after esophageal cancer surgery, it is important to recognize morphological patterns of the thoracic duct intraoperatively. The present study aimed to evaluate the safety and usefulness of near‐infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging ...
