Among the malignancies lymphoma is responsible approximately 70% of cyhlothorax but other lymphocytic tumors including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is rarely reported. A 71 years old man with known CLL, presented with dispnea and pleural effusion and diagnosed cyhlothorax due to leukemic infiltration that confirmed by immuno flow cytometric analyse.

摘要

乳糜胸的特征是名为乳糜的乳状液体积聚在胸腔内。乳糜胸最常见的病因是胸导管创伤或手术以及恶性肿瘤。在恶性肿瘤中，淋巴瘤约占乳糜胸病因的70%，但其他淋巴细胞肿瘤，包括慢性淋巴细胞白血病（CLL），鲜有报道。一名71岁已知患有CLL的男性，因呼吸困难和胸腔积液就诊，经免疫流式细胞分析证实为白血病浸润导致的乳糜胸。
