Abstract: Chylothorax is one of the complications of surgery and lymphatic diseases. The incidence rate of chylothorax has been increasing in recent years. X-ray-guided interventional therapy is a new method for treating chylothorax, and its curative effect is no less than the traditional surgical treatment. Based on discussing the aetiology and diagnosis of chylothorax, this paper briefly summarizes the application progress of X-ray-guided interventional therapy for chylothorax to provide further reference and a basis for clinical practice.
