Meigs' Syndrome - 26-05-2007, 10:58 PM

Yesterday's "MCQ of the day" :
Quote:
Meig's triad does not include
a) Ascites
b) Pneumothorax
c) Haemorrhage
d) Rt. sided solid ovarian tumor
The correct answer is c) Haemorrhage
I was taught that Meigs syndrome (not a triad) is defined as a triad of Ascites, Ovarian tumor(fibroma) and Pleaural effusion. Is there pneumothorax in Meigs syndrome?

The correct answers are (b) Pneumothorax and (c) Hemorrhage.
