title: Pleural effusions in acute mononucleosis.
abstract: A case of acute infectious mononucleosis with pleural effusions as rare complication is reported. This complication is detectable by ultrasonographic examination, often performed in the follow-up of affections of liver and spleen in infectious mononucleosis. It should also be regarded in the differential diagnosis of pleural effusions.
