The complication was suspected when the draining colour of axillary drainage change from serous fluid to milky colour, diagnosis then confirmed clinically and biochemically as chyle. The patient was initially managed conservatively, but this was not successful and was referred to an interventional radiology for lymphangiogram and embolization. Percutaneous lipiodol embolization was performed with immediate success. |
