A 54 year old woman complained about progressive dyspnea. She was markedly obese and presented with right-sided pleural effusion of undetermined origin. Treatment for congestive heart failure did not reduce the pleural effusion. Pleural or pulmonic tumor was not found, a large intraabdominal mass contained ovarian tumor-cells. The exudative pleural fluid was interpreted as Meigs'-syndrome in view of the coexisting ascites.
一名54岁女性主诉进行性呼吸困难。她明显肥胖,伴有原因不明的右侧胸腔积液。充血性心力衰竭的治疗未能减少胸腔积液。未发现胸膜或肺部肿瘤,腹腔内有一巨大肿块,含有卵巢肿瘤细胞。鉴于同时存在腹水,渗出性胸腔积液被诊断为梅格斯综合征。
