A 56-year-old woman presented with dyspnea and a large swelling in the upper vestibular region (Figure 1 A), appeared 6 weeks before and continuing to grow up. Physical examination suggested pleural effusion, subsequently confirmed by chest X-ray (Figure 1 B). Complete blood cell count and biochemistry values were all within normal ranges, excepting for LDH (2620 IU/L) and β(2) -microglobulin (9.4 mg/L).

Abstract

A 56-year-old woman presented with dyspnea and a large swelling in the upper vestibular region (Figure 1 A), appeared 6 weeks before and continuing to grow up. Physical examination suggested pleural effusion, subsequently confirmed by chest X-ray (Figure 1 B). Complete blood cell count and biochemistry values were all within normal ranges, excepting for LDH (2620 IU/L) and β(2) -microglobulin (9.4 mg/L).
