Abstract
ABSTRACT Chyle leak following neck dissection is a rare but recognized complication with significant morbidity. The timing, indications and treatment modalities of chylous fistula remain controversial. Sclerotherapy using tetracycline is not a much acclaimed form of treatment in the management of chylous fistula. We report a case of postoperative chylous leak successfully managed by injection of tetracycline into the supraclavicular wound bed.
