N2  - Introduction: Hepatic hydrothorax treated  medically and/or surgically which is frequently  encountered in liver transplant centers is one of  the indications thoracic surgeons are called for  consultations. The aim of our study is to estimate  the rate of hepatic hydrothorax in our transplant  cases in the pre-posttransplant period, to make an  overview of our treatment protocol and to assess  the effect of treatment and its results.  Material and Methods: Data of 172 hepatic  transplant patients(97 male,75 female;mean age:  2.56±12.1) operated between March 2012-  December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.  Demographic, clinical and radiologic features were  evaluated. Patients were graded according to the  volume of effusion. Taking surgical interventions  into consideration, the role of the presence of  hepatic hydrothorax was evaluated with respect to  intensive care, hospital stay, morbidity and  mortality.  Results: atients who had preoperative hydrothorax  tended to have more frequent hydrothorax  postoperatively (p=0.03). 25.2% of preoperatively  determined hydrothorax patients, and 29.9% of postperative hydrothorax patients underwent  thoracic drainage owing to their grade was2.  Hepatic hydrothorax didnt affect duration of stay  in postoperative intensive care unit and hospital,  and mortality.  Conclusion: Our study that we reached good  results by performing drainage to patients  described grade2, may provide a perspective to  consultant thoracic surgeons in the management  of hepatic hydrothorax.
