Chylothorax is a relatively uncommon condition defined as an abnormal collection of lymphatic fluid within the pleural space and may be encountered at any age. It may be either congenital or acquired. It is very rarely seen bilateral. Here, we present a patient with bilateral congenital idiopathic chylothorax who was treated with operative intervention.
