Abstract
The venous thrombosis (VT) often occurs as a result of central venous catheterization (CVC). When the VT extends into the angulus venosus where the ductus thoracicus drains, lymphatic flow may stop chylothorax may develop. A 76-year-old patient who developed chylothorax as a result of the VT due to long-term CVC and later died is presented. It was emphasized the VT may be the cause of chylothorax and the patients with CVC should be checked regularly for the development of thrombosis.

Abstract
Venöz tromboz (VT) santral venöz kateterizasyon (SVK) sonucu ortaya çıkabilmektedir. VT duktus torasikus’un drene olduğu angulus venosus’a uzanıp lenfatik akımı engellediğinde şilotoraks gelişebilmektedir. Uzun süreli SVK’ya bağlı VT sonucu şilotoraks ortaya çıkan ve yaşamını yitiren 76 yaşındaki bir olgu sunularak; hem VT’nin şilotoraks nedeni olabileceği hem de SVK’lı olguların tromboz gelişimi açısından düzenli kontrollerinin yapılması gerektiği vurgulanmak istenmiştir.
