Chylothorax as a complication after delivery.

G Tornling1, G Axelsson, A Peterffy.   

Abstract

A 23-year old female who developed a chylothorax as a probable complication after delivery is described and a possible mechanism is proposed. Conservative treatment was unsuccessful and the surgical management was complicated by an anatomical variation with the thoracic duct presenting as a plexiform system instead of a single duct.
