Bilateral chylothorax after delivery is a highly infrequent entity. We present the case of a 28-year-old woman who developed progressive dyspnea due to bilateral milky pleural effusion several months after delivery. The effusion was found to contain chylomicrons in the biochemical analysis. Initial conservative treatment failed twice and the chylothorax was successfully treated through sequential bilateral videothoracoscopy with an interval of 6 days between the two interventions and pleurodesis with spray talc.
产后双侧乳糜胸是一种极为罕见的病症。我们报告一例28岁女性病例,该患者在产后数月因双侧乳糜性胸腔积液出现进行性呼吸困难。生化分析发现胸腔积液中含有乳糜微粒。初始保守治疗失败两次,通过序贯双侧电视胸腔镜手术成功治疗乳糜胸,两次手术间隔6天,并使用滑石粉喷雾进行胸膜固定术。
