A 50-yr-old man with the nephrotic syndrome developed a chylothorax that was shown to be due to transdiaphragmatic movement of chylous ascites. Because a significant number of patients with nephrotic syndrome have been reported to have chylous ascites, the possibility that chylothorax is due to movement of chylous ascites into the pleural space should be considered prior to surgical intervention directed toward repair of the thoracic duct.
一名50岁的肾病综合征男性患者出现了乳糜胸，经证实是由于乳糜性腹水的膈下移动所致。由于已有大量肾病综合征患者被报道患有乳糜性腹水，因此在针对胸导管修复进行手术干预之前，应考虑乳糜胸是由乳糜性腹水进入胸腔所致的可能性。
