Chylous ascites: a manifestation of blunt abdominal trauma in an infant
J Pediatr Surg.

Abstract
This report presents an infant in whom a unique case of chylous ascites developed after blunt abdominal trauma. Unfortunately, this case was complicated by Pseudomonas peritonitis, likely from a distant source. Our patient was treated medically and had a good overall outcome.
