Abstract | OBJECTIVE: DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: A pediatric cardiology referral center for the Rocky Mountain region. PATIENT: INTERVENTIONS: CONCLUSIONS:
Prednisone may be useful in the treatment of chylothorax in Noonan syndrome. A controlled clinical trial would be helpful but would be difficult in such a rare complication of an uncommon syndrome.
