    Author: Ramsey PS, Danilenko-Dixon DR, Ramin KD, Ogburn PL.
    Journal: J Matern Fetal Med; 2000; 9(6):373-5. PubMed ID: 11243299.
    Abstract:
    A 37-year-old pregnant woman presented at 18 weeks' gestation with unrelenting chest and shoulder pain, massive pleural effusion, and a large thoracic mass. Biopsy revealed an undifferentiated sarcomatous pleural mesothelioma. Malignant mesothelioma is a rare thoracic malignancy, which has not been described in pregnancy and appears to be minimally affected by the pregnant state.
