Abstract:
Chyluria is rare. The parasite that causes filariasis is the most common cause while the non-parasitic causes is anecdotal. Medical treatment is often insufficient to treat cases of chronic chyluria for which the standard treatment is surgical lymphatic disconnection renovascular. However, sclerotherapy by instillation of a sclerosing agent kidney may represent an alternative to surgery. This technique has the advantage of being less invasive than surgery and has a proven efficacy in the literature.
