En bloc ligation of thoracic duct along with its branches and pleural abrasion were performed after the failure of the initial medical management including pleural drainage via tube thoracostomy, and enalapril, furosemide, and low-fat diet (Prescription Diet Canine r/d, Hill's Pet Product, Topeka, Kansas, USA). Combination medical and surgical therapy resulted in an excellent postoperative outcome. Six months after surgery the dog had no evidence of clinical signs of right-sided heart failure or chylothorax and the severity of echocardiographic abnormalities (right atrial dilatation and tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity) was reduced.3,5 yaşında, erkek bir Rottweiler’da klinik, radyolojik, ekokardiyografik muayene ve serum biyokimyasal test sonuçlarına dayanarak (plevral sıvı sitolojisi ve serum ve plevral sıvı trigliserid düzeyleri) sağ kalp yetmezliğine bağlı şilotoraks tanımlandı. Tüp torakostomi ile plevral drenaj, enelapril, furosemide ve düşük yağlı diyeti (Prescription Diet Canine r/d, Hill’s Pet Product, Topeka, Kansas, ABD) içeren ilk tedavi planının etkisiz olmasından sonra torasik kanal ve kollarının en-blok ligatürü ve plevral abrazyon operasyonu yapıldı. Medikal tedavi ile birlikte operasyon mükemmel postoperatif sonuç gösterdi. Postoperatif 6. ayda köpekte şilotoraks ve sağ kalp yetmezliğinin klinik bulguları görülmezken, ekokardiyografik anormalitelerin şiddeti (sağ atrial dilatasyon ve trikuspid regürgitant jet velositesi) azaldı.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessChylothoraxDogEn bloc ligation of the thoracic ductRight-sided heart failureThoracic-duct ligationIdiopathic chylothoraxCatsVeterinary sciencesCanis familiarisŞilotoraksSağ kalp yetmezliğiKöpekTorasik kanalın en-blok ligatürüArticle0002664395000132-s2.0-70349176429165170332Veterinary sciencesAnimals; Pleura Empyema; Awns
