  • Title: Chylothorax review.
    Author: Teba L, Dedhia HV, Bowen R, Alexander JC.
    Journal: Crit Care Med; 1985 Jan; 13(1):49-52. PubMed ID: 3917388.
    Abstract:
    Chylous leakage from the thoracic duct into the pleural space may occur after any type of thoracic surgery; however, there are few reports of this condition after coronary artery bypass grafting. A case of chylothorax after combined coronary bypass and mitral valve replacement is reported to illustrate a discussion of its pathologic basis, diagnosis and management.
