Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the effectiveness of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography (DCMRL) in diagnosing and planning treatment for different lymphatic disorders.
- A retrospective analysis included 70 patients, primarily with traumatic chylothorax and lymphatic leaks, assessing DCMRL's technical success and its influence on clinical outcomes.
- Results showed high technical success rates for nontraumatic disorders, with 90.3% of patients with suitable anatomy achieving clinical improvement, highlighting DCMRL's role in identifying underlying causes and planning interventions.

A 76-year-old woman was diagnosed with invasive bladder cancer and underwent cystectomy, bilateral external iliac, internal iliac and obturator lymph node dissection, and bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy. Pathological findings showed no lymph node metastasis ; however, the patient had lower abdominal pain and fever from the 14th postoperative day, and computed tomography (CT) revealed fluid retention in the pelvis. Retrograde pyelography showed no leakage from the urinary tract, and a drain was placed after percutaneous puncture of the pelvic cavity.

Percutaneous transhepatic lymphatic embolization (PTLE) and peroral esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) duodenal mucosal radiofrequency (RF) ablation were performed to manage protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) in patients with congenital heart disease. Five procedures were performed in 4 patients (3 men and 1 woman; median age, 49 years; range, 31-71 years). Transhepatic lymphangiography demonstrated abnormal periduodenal lymphatic channels.
