Chylothorax is a rare but life-threatening condition in neonates. We herein report the successful use of OK-432 for a low-birth-weight infant with trisomy 18 who developed refractory chylothorax after thoracic surgery. Increasing the concentration of OK-432 seems useful in cases with a lot of pleural effusion.
乳糜胸在新生儿中是一种罕见但危及生命的病症。我们在此报告成功使用溶链菌制剂(OK-432)治疗一名患有18三体综合征的低体重婴儿,该婴儿在胸外科手术后出现难治性乳糜胸。对于胸腔积液较多的病例,增加OK-432的浓度似乎有效。
