A Case of Chylothorax with Interesting Etiology
Öz: Chylothorax occurs when chylous fluid from the lymphatic system accumulates in the pleural space dueto damage to the ductus thoracicus. The milky fluidcontains a high concentration of triglycerides in theform of chylomicrons. The initial test for diagnosis isanalysis of the pleural fluid. It may be associated witha number of traumatic and nontraumatic conditions.Chylothorax was diagnosed in a patient who underwent an operation for a thoracic vertebra fracture 4years earlier who presented with bronchitis. Fixationpins in the lower thoracic vertebra inserted in theoperation were observed on thorax computerizedtomography. No other etiological cause for chylothorax was found based on the patient history, physicalexamination, or advanced examinations. It was decided that the collapse and fracture operation had alate complication. This case is presented as an interesting etiological cause of chylothorax as, to ourknowledge, there is no similar case in the literature.
Anahtar Kelime: Etyolojisi İlginç bir Şilotoraks Olgusu
Öz: Şilotoraks, duktus torasikusun zarar görmesine bağlı şilöz sıvının lenfatik sistemden plevral boşluğa geçmesidir ve süt rengi sıvıda şilomikron formunda yüksek konsantrasyonda trigliserid içerir. Tanı için başlangıç testi plevra sıvı analizidir. Travmatik ve nontravmatik birçok nedene bağlı olabilir. Bir ay önceki geçirdiği bronşit neden ile öksürük şikâyeti olan ve şilotoraks saptanan olguda, dört yıl önce torakal vertebra kırığı nedeni ile ameliyat öyküsü de mevcuttu. Toraks bilgisayarlı tomografide, alt torakal vertebrada, operasyonda yerleştirilen fiksasyon çivisinin anteriora doğru kaydığı tespit edildi. Öykü, fizik muayene ve ileri tetkiklerle şilotoraksa neden olan diğer etiyolojik neden bulunamadı ve çökme kırığı ameliyatının geç komplikasyonu olduğuna karar verildi. Daha önce literatürde bu ilginç etiyolojik neden ile bildirilen benzer bir olgu bulunmaması nedeni ile sunulmuştur.
