Two cases of abdominal lymphatic disruption following surgery on the abdominal aorta are presented, one causing para-aortic lymphocyst and the other resulting in chylous ascites. The 1st patient ultimatery received operative drainage into the lymphocyst. The 2nd patient responded to twice paracentesis and total parenteral nutrition for one month. We need to be aware of these complications and pay attention to prevention and early diagnosis.
