A mixture of 3:1 lipiodol: <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2010butyl cyanoacrylate embolic solution was injected through a catheterized mesenteric lymphatic vessel via limited abdominal approach using intraoperative fluoroscopy.

In the unsuccessful dog, a diagnosis of lymphangiosarcoma was determined, and the owners elected for euthanasia. Five dogs who underwent successful LE underwent CTLa at 12\u2009weeks. Complete resolution of pleural effusion occurred in three dogs and scant pleural effusion in two dogs. A robust lymphatic embolus preventing antegrade continuation of radiocontrast was documented in all five dogs. Five of the six dogs that underwent LE, were alive and clinically normal at 358\u2013960\u2009days postoperatively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>LE is a feasible part of treatment for dogs with IC.
