Chylous ascites in infants requires prompt surgical intervention for acute symptoms. Congenital or chronic cases can be managed non-surgically using specialized nutrition. This study reviews five infant cases.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Gastroenterology
  • Neonatal Surgery

Background:

  • Chylous ascites is an uncommon condition in infants, characterized by lymphatic fluid accumulation in the abdominal cavity.
  • Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial for favorable outcomes in affected neonates.

Observation:

  • This report details five cases of infantile chylous ascites, highlighting varied clinical presentations.
  • Acute onset of symptoms often necessitates surgical intervention.

Findings:

  • Conservative management strategies, including medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) feedings and total parenteral nutrition (TPN), are effective for congenital or chronic chylous ascites.
  • Surgical intervention is indicated for acute presentations of infantile chylous ascites.

Implications:

  • Understanding the different management pathways for infantile chylous ascites can guide clinical decision-making.
  • This case series contributes to the limited literature on managing this rare neonatal condition.
