A large abdominal pseudocyst extended through the diaphragm, causing chronic pleural effusions. Conservative management led to the pseudocyst

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Pulmonology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Chronic bilateral pleural effusions can present diagnostic challenges.
  • Identifying the source of persistent effusions is crucial for effective patient management.

Observation:

  • A computed axial tomography (CAT) scan revealed a large abdominal pseudocyst.
  • The pseudocyst had extended through the diaphragm into the posterior mediastinum.

Findings:

  • The patient presented with chronic pleural effusions without identifiable masses.
  • The abdominal pseudocyst was identified as the cause of the pleural effusions.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering extrathoracic sources for pleural effusions.
