Meigs’ Syndrome Associated With Elevated Ca 125 Level – A Rare Case

Abstract

Meigs’ syndrome is a rare but well known syndrome. It is a triad of ovarian fibroma with ascites and pleural effusion that resolves after resection of the tumour. Postmenopausal women with solid adnexal masses, ascites and pleural effusion with elevated CA125 level are highly suggestive for malignant ovarian tumour. Only few cases of Meigs, syndrome with elevated CA 125 have been reported in different literatures. Here we report a case of Meigs syndrome due to right sided ovarian fibroma with elevated CA 125 level in postmenopausal woman.J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 24, No.1, April, 2015, Page 76-78
