Background:Chylous ascites(CA),an emulsion rich in triglycerides,is a rare type of ascites,especially after cardiac surgery.Also,there are few reports of the occurrence of CA after mitral valve replacement,aortic valve replacement,tricuspid valvuloplasty,and coronary artery bypass grafting.Case presentation:We report the case of a 53-year-old man who underwent surgery for a diagnosis of mitral incompetence,aortic incompetence,tricuspid incompetence,and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease.Fifteen days after surgery,3000 mL of milky-yellow ascites appeared in the abdominal cavity,diagnosed as CA by laboratory examination.The ascites gradually disappeared after being drained,and the patients improved.The curative was objective,but the exact cause is not clear.Conclusion:Although CA is rare,it may occur during the surgical intervention in cardiac surgery.
