Chylothorax after lung cancer surgery is relatively rare but must be considered as a complication of thoracic surgery.
Between January 2012 and June 2017, 818 patients underwent lung cancer surgery at our hospital. Among them, 14 (1.7%) patients with chylothorax were retrospectively reviewed. Three patients were treated with oral intake cessation except water and total parental nutrition( TPN)[TPN group], 11 patients were treated with a fat-free diet( fat-free diet group).
The drainage period was similar in both group [group TPN;13 (1214) days and group fat-free diet;15.7 (642) days]. In the TPN group, 3 patients underwent pleurodesis and no patient needed surgical intervention. In the fat-free diet group, 5 patients improved only with diet management. Pleurodesis was necessary in 5 of which 3 underwent surgical intervention.
A fat-free diet is useful in treating chylothorax after lung cancer surgery.
肺癌手术后乳糜胸相对少见,但必须被视为胸外科手术的一种并发症。
2012年1月至2017年6月期间,我院818例患者接受了肺癌手术。其中,14例(1.7%)发生乳糜胸的患者接受了回顾性分析。3例患者除饮水外停止经口摄入,并接受全胃肠外营养(TPN)治疗(TPN组),11例患者接受无脂饮食治疗(无脂饮食组)。
两组的引流时间相似[TPN组;13(1214)天,无脂饮食组;15.7(642)天]。TPN组中,3例患者接受了胸膜固定术,无患者需要手术干预。在无脂饮食组中,5例患者仅通过饮食管理得到改善。其中5例患者需要胸膜固定术,3例接受了手术干预。
无脂饮食对治疗肺癌手术后乳糜胸有效。
