Thoracic Duct Embolization [PDF]
Percutaneous treatment of chylothorax was developed as a minimally invasive alternative to surgical options. The treatment consists of diagnostic pedal lymphangiography followed by transabdominal catheterization of the cisterna chyli (CC)/thoracic duct (TD) and embolization of the TD proximal to the chyle leak.

Thoracic duct lymphography by subcutaneous contrast agent injection in a dog with chylothorax [PDF]
A 4-year-old male Japanese Shiba Inu presented with recurrent chylothorax. The thoracic duct was successfully imaged using computed tomography after the injection of an iodine contrast agent into the subcutaneous tissue surrounding the anus. The thoracic

Chylothorax treated with targeted sclerotherapy by direct puncture of the lymphatic leakage site
We report a novel application of targeted sclerotherapy to eradicate high-output chylothorax. The patient underwent thoracic duct embolization; however, cannulation of the thoracic duct failed, and thoracic duct disruption was performed.
