چکیده انگلیسی
A 37-year-old woman with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) who underwent right single-lung transplantation from a cadaveric donor developed persistent chylous ascites. Despite use of diuretics and sirolimus to reduce ascites-associated symptoms and to prevent gastroesophageal reflex triggered by increased abdominal pressure, the ascites were refractory, and periodic paracenteses were required. With placement of a peritoneovenous shunt (Denver shunt), the patient's abdominal circumference decreased, and her symptoms abated. Thus, placement of a peritoneovenous shunt can be an effective management strategy for refractory chylous ascites in patients with LAM, even after lung transplantation.
