A 63-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with history of persistent dyspnea. Right pleural effusion and ovarian tumor were discovered, but here were no significant findings on thoracoscopy under local anesthesia. The pleural effusion was suspected to be secondary to Meigs' syndrome, and a diagnosis of endometriotic ovarian cyst was made. Since the pleural effusion resolved after surgery, the patient was diagnosed with incomplete pseudo-Meigs' syndrome. We consider this to be a valuable case, as there are no previously reported cases of pseudo-Meigs' syndrome derived from an endometriotic ovarian cyst, to the best of our knowledge.
一名63岁女性因持续性呼吸困难病史入院。发现右侧胸腔积液和卵巢肿瘤,但局部麻醉下胸腔镜检查未发现明显异常。胸腔积液怀疑继发于梅格斯综合征,诊断为子宫内膜异位卵巢囊肿。由于手术后胸腔积液消退,该患者被诊断为不完全性假性梅格斯综合征。据我们所知,此前尚无源自子宫内膜异位卵巢囊肿的假性梅格斯综合征病例报道,因此我们认为这是一个有价值的病例。
