Management of retroperitoneal chylous leakage.

Lymphatic complications are uncommon after spinal surgery. Postsurgical collections of lymph may result in chyloma, chylothorax, chylous ascites, or chyloretroperitoneum. Recommended treatment of chylothorax or chylous ascites includes drainage, and a low-fat diet using medium-chain triglyceride or total parenteral nutrition.

Analysis of cytoplasmic RNA and polyribosmomes from feline leukemia virus-infected cells.

Cytoplasmic virus-specific RNA and polyribosomes from a chronically infected feline thymus tumor cell line, F-422, were analyzed by using in vitro-synthesized feline leukemia virus (Rickard strain) (R-FeLV) complementary DNA (cDNA) probe. By hybridization kinetics analysis, cytoplasmic, polyribosomat, and nuclear RNAs were found to be 2.1, 2.
