Abstract

A 51-year-old woman presented with acute ascites and hydrothorax is reported. Pelvic ultrasound showed two pelvic solid masses and serum CA125 level was elevated (577 IU/ml). Pathology revealed bilateral ovarian fibromas. We present this case of Meigs' syndrome and discuss its diagnostic problems and a review of the literature.
