Meigs' syndrome with elevated serum CA125 level / 대한산부인과학회지

ABSTRACT

Meigs' syndrome is characterized by the pleural effusion and ascites in patient with solid benign ovarian tumors and the resolution of the effusion after resection of the tumor. Elevated serum CA125 levels in postmenopausal women with solid adnexal masses, ascites and pleural effusion are highly suggestive for malignant ovary tumor. We present a case of Meigs' syndrome with elevated serum CA125.
