摘要
Recent reports have advocated treatment of congenital chylothorax with chemical pleurodesis via intrapleural administration of OK-432. Severe complications have not been reported, but recently we have encountered a life-threatening case of massive hemolysis after the procedure. The hemoglobin of the infant decreased from 8.7 to 3.1 g/dl within 48 h, with concomitant severe hyperbilirubinemia (472 mu mol/l) requiring exchange transfusion. Frontline neonatologists should be aware of this rare but potentially life-threatening adverse reaction. In addition, it is possible that a longer indwelling time (3.5 vs. 0.5 h) for OK-432 pleurodesis may alter the therapeutic response. (C) 2016 S. Karger AG, Basel
