Ganapathy Ananthakrishnan1, Alistair G Wilkinson, Simon F McGurk, Thomas Marshall.   

Abstract

We report an unusual case of chylothorax in an infant associated with a staphylococcal paravertebral abscess secondary to discitis affecting the thoracic spine. We discuss the initial presentation with sepsis and chylothorax and the delayed diagnosis of discitis. We also discuss the imaging features and treatment in this case.
