OBJECTIVE: Cervical chylous fistula is an uncommon complication after neck dissection, but it might lead to some serious clinical outcomes. Although most cervical chylous fistulas can heal in a few days with standard treatments, some can be intractable. In this study, we describe a new method with local application of @entity796 injection for intractable cervical chylous fistula. STUDY DESIGN: Case series with chart review. SETTING: West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The charts of 18 @entity1 who were treated with @entity796 injection (PAI) for intractable cervical chylous fistula were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS: All @entity1 were successfully treated with PAI. Mild @entity221 (temperature, <38  C) occurred in 9 @entity1 , moderate @entity221 (38  C-39  C) in 4 @entity1 , and severe @entity221 (>39  C) in 5 @entity1 . All @entity1 had mild to severe @entity4048 . CONCLUSIONS: Local application of PAI is an effective method for the treatment of intractable cervical chylous fistula, of which the most common side effects are transient @entity221 and @entity158 .
