Abstract: There are few evidence-based treatment options for chylothorax in newborns. We report on 5 cases of preterm newborn infants who received drainage and continuous etilefrine infusion for clinically significant, refractory chylothorax. Irrespective of the cause of the effusion, etilefrine infusion was associated with a clear decrease in chylous output within 2 to 4 days of initiation with heart rates and blood pressures maintained within the age-normal limits.
