Breve descrizione dei contenuti:

Chyluria, an abnormal lymphatic disorder, results in excessive abdominal lymph drainage into the urinary system, causing protein loss, nutritional deficiencies, and immune issues. Mainly linked to parasitic infections in developed countries, non-parasitic causes like trauma or tumors are rare. Typically appearing in adults with bilateral involvement, management options include conservative or surgical approaches. We present the case of a 13-year-old with congenital chyluria, treated with robot-assisted staged reno-lymphatic disconnection after failed interventional radiology. Bilateral scleroangiography followed, leading to persistently milky urine for a month. Finally, urine clarity improved, correlating with better urinalysis, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary approach.
