Laparoscopic renal pedicle lymphatic disconnection is the most effective method for treating chyluria that has failed to respond to conservative management. Chylous hemothorax is a rare clinical occurrence resulting from the anatomic abnormality. This paper reported a case, who was admitted with painless gross hematuria for 1 month and was diagnosed with left chylous hematuria. Laparoscopic left renal pedicle lymphatic disconnection was performed, and bilateral chylous hemothorax occurred after the operation. After conservative treatment such as bilateral closed thoracic drainage and blood transfusion support, the patient recovered well. After 2 months of follow-up, there was no obvious effusion in the bilateral thoracic cavity, and the chylous test of urine fluid was negative.
