abstract={Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a minimally invasive procedure to remove large renal calculi. Complications can range from infection to bowel damage but only rarely does the procedure result in pulmonary injury. We present the first case of chylothorax secondary to percutaneous nephrolithotomy for removal of a large renal calculus. The patient was treated with a decortication procedure and discharged to rehab shortly thereafter.},
