title: Uterine leiomyoma associated with ascites and hydrothorax.
abstract: Uterine leiomyoma associated with ascites and hydrothorax was apparently cured by total hysterectomy. This is believed to be the 15th recorded case of this type of Pseudo-Meigs' syndrome and the first in a patient with severe curvature of the spine and dorsolumbar scoliosis. The association with ascites and hydrothorax was investigated using 99mTc-labeled macroaggregated albumin.
