title: Persistent medical management of chylopericardium following orthotopic heart transplant.
abstract: We describe a case of chylopericardium post orthotopic heart transplant, having had previous cardiac surgeries. This was managed conservatively for a prolonged period after which the patient recovered. We emphasise the fact that medical management works although the recovery time may be prolonged.
