Chylothorax presenting as non-immune hydrops is even rarer. We report a case of congenital bilateral chylothorax presenting as non immune hydrops and managed successfully with chemical pleurodesis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Conversely, increasing levels indicate a worsening condition requiring aggressive workup or treatment. LD iso enzyme analysis may be helpful in diagnosing problematic exudates but is not routinely recommended (Lossos, 1997). [passeidireto.com]

Diagnostic workup in a neonate presenting with chylothorax would be maternal, fetal, and neonatal. The aim is to exclude other causes of hydrothoraces. [ispub.com]

The average daily drain output within 3 days post-treatment (median 62 mL, range 10-651 mL) was significantly lower than that before treatment (median 133 mL, range 70-620 mL) (P   .002). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Morbidity of congenital chylothorax (CC) is high, and prognosis is very poor if chylothorax is associated with hydrops fetalis. The optimal treatment of CC has not been defined. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
