摘要
Chyle leak is a very rare complication following an axillary lymph node dissection. We report a case of chyle leak following sentinel lymph node biopsy in a patient with breast cancer with superior vena caval thrombosis. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of chyle leakage following axillary sentinel lymph node biopsy. We describe the aetiology, prevention and treatment strategy that can be adopted in these patients.
