Abstract A 46-year-old man underwent living-donor liver transplantation and splenectomy for primary biliary cirrhosis. On postoperative day 22, cloudiness of ascites increased, and triglyceride concentration in ascites was as high as 1046 mg/dL. With a diagnosis of chylous ascites, total parenteral nutrition was started. Nine days after starting total parenteral nutrition, cloudiness of ascites decreased, and triglycerides in ascites decreased to 93 mg/dL. Oral intake was restarted, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 46. Chylous ascites is a rare complication after living-donor liver transplantation for which total parenteral nutrition may be useful.

End Stage

Living-donor kidney transplantation is one of the treatment options of end-stage renal failure. In many transplant centers, laparoscopic live-donor transplantation is recognised as the standard pro- cedure. Chylous ascites (CA) is a very rare complication after laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN). We aimed to present the management of the first case report in Turkey. 62-year-old male patient underwent laparoscopic transperitoneal left donor nephrectomy. One month after discharge, he was admitted with abdominal distention and imaging revealed diffuse free fluid in the abdomen. After diagnosis, milky colored chylous fluid was collected by inserting a percutenous drainage cathe- ter. The patient was treated with combination of percutaneous drainage, somatostatin analogue and total parenteral nutrition. Keywords: chylous ascites; laparoscopic donor nephrectomy; complication
