We report a case of Gorham-Stout disease (GSD) complicated by chylothorax and treated with a combination therapy with interferon and bisphosphonates. This treatment may be helpful in improving the usually unfavorable prognosis of GSD beginning with a chylothorax before 1 year of age, and in reducing bone lesions. Moreover, the use of bisphosphonates appears to be useful in treating pain.
