[Traumatic chylothorax with dorsal spinal fracture. A case report (author's transl)].
We related there a traumatic chylothorax due to a thoracic vertebral fracture. It has been recognized at the 13st day, after a lost of 11 liter of lymph and a down of albuminemia by lymphography. The direct ligature has been only partly successful leaving still a tiny lymph leak during a fortnight.
