Chilothorax, a rare clinical condition characterized by high triglyceride white fluid in the thoracic cavity; when the literature is examined, it is seen because of trauma, malignancy, complication of surgery, and rarely central catheter-related thromboplasty. In the treatment, diet change, nutrition, drainage with tube thoracostomy, conservative method, surgical procedure with thoracotomy are applied.In our case there was no response to nutritional changes, drainage, thoracotomy and somatostatin treatments. Cisterna chyli ligation was performed with laparotomy. We present a case of spontaneous bilateral chylothorax associated with superior and inferior vena cava thrombosis (without central catheter relationship).

Cisterna Chyli

Abstract Post-operative chyle leak is a rare but recognised complication after abdominal surgeries particularly those involving dissection adjacent to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes and/or lymphatic systems. There are limited cases of post-operative chyle leak associated with adrenal surgery reported in the literature with no consensus on its management. Lymphatics of the adrenal gland drain into the thoracic duct via regional lymph nodes or directly into the cisterna chyli, posterior to the aorta. If not adequately managed, chyle leak can be associated with hypovolemia, electrolyte imbalances, malnutrition and immunosuppression. These consequences can be attributed to the loss of fluid, electrolytes, lipids, proteins, and immunoglobulins. We hereby report a case of post-operative chyle leak in a 79-year-old male who underwent an open left adrenalectomy, left nephrectomy, splenectomy and distal pancreatectomy for a large, 20.8cm left adrenal cavernous haemangioma. Chyle leak was confirmed on post-operative day 7 based on high levels of triglycerides in the abdominal drain output. Intra-operatively there was no evidence of lymphatic damage. However, the major abdominal surgery involving retroperitoneal viscera close to the lymphatic trunk predisposed the patient to this complication. The patient was managed conservatively with the aim of decreasing chyle production by dietary manipulation and use of somatostatin. Enteral nutrition was continued with a strict low-fat diet and regular dietician input. These strategies contributed to the gradual resolution of chyle leak and the patient’s recovery.

Postural Effect

Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) may be defined as injuries and disorders of the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments, joints, cartilage and spinal disc. This may occur due to improper physical work activities or appalling workplace conditions. Awkward or extreme postures are less efficient than posture keep joints near the center of their range of motion.Objective: The objective of the current study was to assessment of postural effect on work related musculoskeletal disorders and back muscle fatigue among the goldsmiths of India.Methods: In this current study, the experiment was performed on 100 male goldsmiths. A detailed questionnaire study on discomfort feeling was done and analysis of body posture by Rapid Upper Limb Assessment was done to evaluate the work stress during their job. Electromyographic activity was collected from ten major trunk muscles sites which consist of right and left muscle.Result: From the analysis, it was revealed that musculoskeletal disorders were the major problem of the goldsmiths. Moreover questionnaire study revealed that most of the workers were affected by pain at Neck (80%), Low back (91%), Wrist (45%), Shoulder (20%). Decreased in RMS and MedF of all the ten major trunk muscles were observed at the end of the every work cycle, which indicating that muscular fatigue was induced by the Gold Smiths tasks.Conclusion: From this study it can be concluded that the goldsmiths are working in awkward and forward bending postures for prolonged period of time with the potential risks of musculoskeletal disorders primarily affecting the low-back and neck region of the body. This can be attributed by the improper design of the workstation.
