DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00208-2018
Abstract: Malignant pleural effusions (MPE) are common and associated with disabling symptoms, and large hospitalisation costs [1]. Current management of recurrent MPE is symptomatic, with chest drain and talc pleurodesis, or indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) insertion.… read more here.
