PURPOSE
Malignant pleural effusions (MPE) may either coincide with or follow the diagnosis of a primary tumor. Whether this circumstance influences prognosis has not been well substantiated.
METHODS
Retrospective review of all consecutive patients who were cared for at a Spanish university hospital during an 11-year period and received a diagnosis of MPE.
RESULTS
Of 401 patients, the MPE was the first evidence of cancer in 265 (66%), and it followed a previously diagnosed neoplasm in 136 (34%). Lung cancer predominated in the former group (131, 50%), and breast cancer in the latter (55, 40%). MPE that were the presenting manifestation of hematological and ovarian tumors had a statistically significant survival advantage as compared to those which developed in patients from a previously known cancer (respective absolute differences of 41 and 20 months; p < 0.005).
CONCLUSIONS
In hematological and ovarian malignancies, the synchronous or metachronous diagnosis of MPE may have prognostic implications.
目的
恶性胸腔积液（MPE）可能与原发性肿瘤同时发生，也可能在其之后发生。这种情况是否会影响预后尚未得到充分证实。
方法
回顾性分析了在西班牙一家大学医院接受治疗的 11 年间连续收治的所有患者的资料，这些患者均被诊断为 MPE。
结果
401 例患者中，265 例（66%）MPE 是癌症的首发表现，136 例（34%）MPE 是在先前诊断的肿瘤之后发生的。前者以肺癌为主（131 例，50%），后者以乳腺癌为主（55 例，40%）。与先前已知癌症患者发生的 MPE 相比，血液系统和卵巢肿瘤的首发 MPE 具有统计学显著的生存优势（分别为 41 个月和 20 个月的绝对差异；p < 0.005）。
结论
在血液系统和卵巢恶性肿瘤中，MPE 的同步或异时诊断可能具有预后意义。
