Abstract
We present a case of chylous effusion (CE) occurring in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), an observation which has rarely been reported. Therefore, CLL should be added to the differential diagnosis of nontraumatic chylothorax. CE in CLL can be successfully managed by irradiation of the mediastinum.Entities:
