A case of malignant pleural mesothelioma is presented. The initial pleural abnormalities were radiologically rather non-specific and were wrongly interpreted anatomo-pathologically as pleural metastases. Chemotherapy however resulted in an exceptional survival of more than 10 years. CT scan showed the extensive pleural damage. The histologic, symptomatologic and radiologic features of this rare tumor are discussed.
本文报告一例恶性胸膜间皮瘤病例。最初的胸膜异常在放射学上表现较为非特异性，在解剖病理学上被错误地解释为胸膜转移瘤。然而，化疗使患者存活了超过10年，这一情况非常罕见。CT扫描显示了广泛的胸膜损害。文中讨论了这种罕见肿瘤的组织学、症状学和放射学特征。
