Chylothorax is an unusual complication of various malignant neoplasms, generally lymphomas. The few reported cases of chylothorax with gastric and other abdominal malignancies have involved large abdominal masses with prominent adenopathy and chylous ascites. We describe a patient in whom chylothorax was the presenting manifestation of an adenocarcinoma with probable gastric primary, developing prior to any clinical or radiologic evidence of tumor.
乳糜胸是各种恶性肿瘤（通常为淋巴瘤）的一种罕见并发症。少数报告的胃及其他腹部恶性肿瘤合并乳糜胸的病例，均伴有巨大腹部肿块、明显的淋巴结病和乳糜性腹水。我们描述了一名患者，其乳糜胸是原发性可能为胃的腺癌的首发表现，且在肿瘤的任何临床或影像学证据出现之前就已发生。
