Abstract

Meigs' syndrome is defined by the presence of ascites and hydrothorax in association with an ovarian fibroma, which spontaneously resolve soon after the removal of the tumor. Pseudo-Meigs' syndrome is rare syndrome associated with struma ovarii, yolk sac tumor, ovarian carcinoma, leiomyoma, Brenner tumor and tuberculosis which is combined with the same clinical feature. The cause and pathophysiology of Pseudo-Meigs' syndrome are uncertain. The diagnosis is done by characteristic clinical finding. We present a case of Pseudo-Meigs' syndrome with Brenner tumor with brief review of the literatures.
