What to do if i have been given is to have surgeons inject his thoracic duct with dye to find where the chyle is leaking from and ligate. does this sound accurate?

Thoracic Duct: I believe you may be asking about Thoracic Duct embolization for chyle leak following different procedures. I do not have the age or past medical or surgical history of the patient. You may also be referring to lymphangiography, which is a diagnostic procedure. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3140251/ Consult an interventional radiologist to learn more about this procedure.
