If untreated, mortality rate of chylothorax can be up to 50%. This is a case report of a 3-year-old child with iatrogenic chylothorax. Despite conservative treatment and procedures, like perm catheter insertion, the patient failed to improve the respiratory symptoms over 3 months of period. As an alternative to surgical option, such as pleurodesis and thoracic duct ligation which has high complication rate, the patient underwent lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) and lymph node to vein anastomosis (LNVA). Follow-up at fourth month showed clear lungs without breathing difficulty despite perm catheter removal. This is the first report to show the effectiveness of LVA and LNVA against iatrogenic chylothorax.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1751026","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,1]],"date-time":"2022-08-01T06:37:26Z","timestamp":1659335846000},"page":"549-553","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Using
