Pleurisy with Effusion Associated with Pseudomucinous Cystadenoma

(Meig's Syndrome)

ERNEST D. NORA M.D. and RICHARD M. DAVISON M.D., F.C.C.P.

1. The second case of Meig's Syndrome due to pseudomucinous cystadenoma of the ovary is presented.

2. The case was presented to make people more conscious of a condition that responds very well to a simple operation or second operation as in this case.

3. The literature is reviewed, brought up-to-date, with the addition of the leg portion of the syndrome.

4. The fact that the fluid in the peritoneal cavity differed from that in the thoracic cavity would mean that the cells found in the peritoneum did not get beyond the diaphragmatic barriers.
