We aimed to describe a case of CA with a delayed clinical presentation nearly 100\u2009days postoperatively in a patient with advanced endometrial cancer and to review the management strategies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We retrospectively evaluated a 75\u2010year\u2010old patient who underwent radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo\u2010oophorectomy, extended lymphadenectomy (pelvic and para\u2010aortic), and partial omentectomy for stage IIIB endometrial cancer. Data collected included onset timing, ascitic fluid analysis, imaging findings, and treatment responses. Additionally, a narrative review identified 13 relevant studies discussing the onset, risk factors, diagnosis, and therapies for post\u2010operative CA in gynecologic oncology.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although CA typically appears within 4 to 21\u2009days, our patient developed CA at approximately post\u2010operative day 99. Diagnostic paracentesis confirmed triglyceride\u2010rich ascitic fluid, establishing the diagnosis of CA. Dietary modification (fasting followed by medium\u2010chain triglyceride diet), octreotide therapy, and computed tomography (CT)\u2010guided lymphangiography effectively controlled the chylous leakage without requiring surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>Conservative measures\u2014low\u2010fat or medium\u2010chain triglyceride diets, total parenteral nutrition, and somatostatin analogs\u2014are considered first\u2010line, while lymphangiography\/embolization and eventual surgical ligation may be needed for refractory cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case illustrates that CA with a delayed clinical presentation can be successfully treated with a stepwise conservative approach comprising dietary therapy, octreotide, and CT\u2010guided lymphangiography, even when presenting more than 3 months postoperatively.
