Abstract

Eleven cases of chylothorax following cardiac surgery in children are described. Conservative treatment was carried out with success in all patients but one, who died because of the underlying cardiac pathology, with the chylothorax still present. Our results indicate that conservative treatment is effective in children, although surgery has been previously considered by some authors as the treatment of choice in this age group.
