Postpneumonectomy tension chylothorax.

S V Karwande, M W Wolcott, W A Gay.   

Abstract

Chylous leak from the thoracic duct into the pleural space may occur after any type of thoracic surgery. This is a serious, often life-threatening entity. Two cases of postpneumonectomy chylothorax with hemodynamic compromise are reported. Early recognition, pathophysiology, and optimal management of this problem are discussed.
