ABSTRACT

El quilotórax constituye la causa más frecuente de derrame pleural en el recién nacido. Generalmente, se trata de un derrame unilateral y secundario a la cirugía torácica; en muy pocos casos es bilateral y de origen congénito. Presentamos el caso clínico de un neonato con diagnóstico ecográfico prenatal de derrame pleural bilateral. En la actualidad, el tratamiento para el manejo del quilotórax congénito no está claramente definido (AU)


Chylothorax is the most common cause of pleural effusion in the newborn infant. Generally it has to do with an unilateral effusion and secondary to thoracic surgery, and only in a few cases it is bilateral and has a congenital origin. We report the case of a newborn with echographic prenatal diagnosis of bilateral pleural effusion. The optimal treatment of congenital chylothorax has not been clearly defined (AU)
