Thoracoscopic ligation of the thoracic duct.

R B Kent1, T W Pinson.   

Abstract

Traditional operative management for chylous drainage refractory to conservative therapy is thoracic duct ligation via right open thoracotomy. This case report details successful thoracoscopic ligation of the thoracic duct for a chylous leak following a left neck dissection. Since the thoracoscopic approach is less morbid than open thoracotomy, early operative management is recommended for thoracic duct injuries.
