| Abstract: | Eight lymphatic fluid collections were drained percutaneously. There were no immediate or late complications. Seven patients
had follow-up; 1 required surgical drainage of a residual or recurrent lymphocele, and another had reaccumulated fluid in
a lymphocele which was detected on autopsy. The remaining lymphatic collections responded to percutaneous drainage. Percutaneous
drainage is safe and can be an effective tool in the management of lymphatic collections. |
