Childbirth was reported as a possible cause of asymptomatic pleural effusion (1). There is a wide variation in the reported incidence of such effusion, ranging from 67% (2) to 6% (3). Ultrasonography is a safe procedure during pregnancy. It was shown to be superior to radiology in detecting small effusions (4). This study was carried out to investigate

The key to effective evaluation of pleural effusions lies in an understanding of the dynamic nature of its formation and alteration. Trying to fit a specimen neatly into a distinct diagnostic category will not only lead to frustration, but is often unnecessary or incorrect.

Tuberculous pleural effusion (TBPE) is the most common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in Spain, and is one of the most frequent causes of pleural effusion. Although the incidence has steadily declined (4.8 cases/100,000population in 2009), the percentage of TBPE remains steady with respect to the total number of TB cases (14.3%-19.3%). Almost

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2001
Malignant pleural effusions contribute to considerable morbidity in cancer patients and generally portend an overall poor prognosis. Treatment of malignant pleural effusions is palliative; therefore, quality of life issues, as well as the risks and benefits of the therapeutic options, become more critical.

Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2008
The clinical course of primary fetal hydrothorax is unpredictable. Whereas smaller unilateral effusions might remain stable or even regress, this is rarely the case with larger collections. Bilateral effusions, hydrops, preterm delivery and the lack of antenatal therapy are all associated with poor outcome.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1986
Pleural effusions are common in cancer patients, developing either from the malignant condition or from unrelated causes, such as congestive heart failure, pulmonary infarction, or infection. Diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion rests on demonstration of the presence of malignant cells in the pleural fluid or pleural biopsy specimen.

Lung, 2009
Tuberculous pleural effusion is one of the most common forms of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB). The immediate cause of the effusion is a delayed hypersensitivity response to mycobacterial antigens in the pleural space. For this reason microbiological analyses are often negative and limited by the lengthy delay in obtaining results. In areas with high

CHEST Journal, 1978
Twenty-seven patients with perplexing pleural effusion were studied to determine clinical outcome. The value of performing pleuroscopic examination or open pleural biopsy (or both) in search of a diagnosis was assessed. After a mean follow-up period of six months, a diagnosis was reached in 16 patients, while 11 patients had no diagnosis after a mean ...
