Pleural effusion and ascites are usually transudative. Ovarian fibroma is an uncommon tumor. We herein report a case of Meigs\u2019s syndrome in a 61-year-old woman who presented with complaints of abdominal pain for two-three months along with decreased appetite and constipation. On examination, there was decreased air entry in the right side of the chest, generalized abdominal distention, and a firm irregular mass was felt which was mobile and extending from upper border of symphysis pubis to just above the umbilicus on abdominal palpation. Chest X ray showed right sided pleural effusion, ultrasonogram (USG) abdominal and pelvis showed gross ascites, and a very large complex right ovarian cyst was confirmed by computed tomography (CT) scan. She underwent staging laparotomy with total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and omental resection for biopsy. Biopsy showed right ovarian fibroma.<\/ns4:p>","DOI":"10.12688\/f1000research.122368.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,22]],"date-time":"2022-07-22T12:11:19Z","timestamp":1658491879000},"page":"815","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12688\/f1000research.crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Case
