ABSTRACT
Chylothorax is the accumulation of lipid pleural effusion. Few reports have described chylothorax caused by gastric cancer. A 45-year-old woman presented with progressive lymphedema and bilateral chylothorax. Although repetitive thoracentesis was performed to relieve her dyspnea, swelling of her axillary lymph nodes became significant. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography demonstrated the accumulation of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose in these nodes, and a lymph node biopsy showed signet ring cell carcinoma. The primary site was a 0-IIc type lesion in the gastric body that was only detected by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The patient was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer 3.5 months after presentation for chylothorax.
