Uterine leiomyoma associated with ascites and hydrothorax.
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.
