Core Tip |
Pseudo-Meigs’ syndrome associated with colorectal cancer is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of this syndrome secondary to metachronous ovarian metastases from transverse colon cancer. This patient complained of progressive abdominal distention and dyspnea preoperatively, but her postoperative condition improved rapidly after bilateral oophorectomies. We conclude that pseudo-Meigs’ syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis of massive or rapidly increasing ascites and pleural effusion associated with large or rapidly enlarging ovarian tumors. |
