https://doi.org/10.14412/1995-4484-2010-1171
Abstract
The paper describes a case of Gorham-Stout syndrome, a rare condition, which is accompanied by massive osteolysis of different portions
of bone tissue. It reviews the data available in the literature on this problem. Idiopathic osteolysis concurrent with chylothorax has a poor
prognosis. The syndrome can be treated only with calcitonins or bisphosphonates.
