摘要
Patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension have increased thoracic duct lymph flow. Correction of portal hypertension is associated with decreases in thoracic duct flow. The authors present a case of rapid resolution of refractory chylothorax caused by thoracic duct injury proven by lymphangiography and helical CT scan in a patient with cirrhosis of the liver by using a transjugular intrahepatic porto-systemic shunt to decrease portal pressure and thereby reduce thoracic duct lymph flow.
