title: Gorham's syndrome with pleural effusion and colonic carcinoma.
abstract: Gorham's syndrome is a rare primary disorder characterised by spontaneous bone-resorption which usually arrests spontaneously. The presence of thoracic findings markedly worsens the prognosis. We report a case of Gorham's syndrome with thoracic as well as skeletal involvement who subsequently developed colonic carcinoma.
