Abstract:
This is the first reported association of congenital chylothorax and mediastinal neuroblastoma in a newborn infant. The infant exhibited features of both congenital and acquired chylothorax. Resolution of the chylothorax occurred following ligation of thoracic duct after failure of conservative management with multiple thoracentesis and chest tube drainage.
