title: Idiopathic chylothorax and lymphedema in 2 whippet littermates.
abstract: Idiopathic chylothorax and limb edema was diagnosed in two 2-year-old male whippet siblings. The fact that the 2 related animals developed similar clinical signs at a young age may suggest a congenital or hereditary etiology.
