Abstract:
We present a rare case of a 45-year-old woman with pseudo-Meigs\' syndrome and eosinophilic pleural effusion (EPE). She experienced cough, sputum, and dyspnea with a large right pleural effusion. Laboratory tests showed eosinophilia in the blood and pleural fluid. An ovarian tumor and ascites were also detected. After left salpingo-oophorectomy, the tumor was diagnosed as a mature cystic teratoma of the left ovary. The right-sided pleural effusion gradually resolved. Pseudo-Meigs\' syndrome is characterized by benign ovarian tumor, ascites, and pleural effusion. Typically, it is associated with exudate pleural effusion characterized by a predominance of mononuclear cells. The occurrence of eosinophilic pleural effusion in our patient may be exceptionally rare.
摘要:
我们介绍了一例罕见的45岁女性假性Meigs综合征和嗜酸性粒细胞性胸腔积液(EPE)。她经历了咳嗽,痰,呼吸困难伴大量右侧胸腔积液。实验室检查显示血液和胸膜液中嗜酸性粒细胞增多。还检测到卵巢肿瘤和腹水。左输卵管卵巢切除术后,肿瘤被诊断为成熟的左侧卵巢囊性畸胎瘤。右侧胸腔积液逐渐消退。假性Meigs综合征以良性卵巢肿瘤为特征,腹水,和胸腔积液.通常,它与以单核细胞为主的渗出物胸腔积液有关。我们患者的嗜酸性胸腔积液的发生可能非常罕见。
