Abstract
Pseudomyxoma pleuri is a rare condition and it mostly results from secondary involvement of an abdominal pathology. Massive pleural disease impedes cardiopulmonary functions and threatens life. We are reporting our experience about managing a middle-age lady with a known case of Pseudomyxoma peritonei, who presented to causality with progressive breathing difficulty in acute exacerbation and cardiopulmonary compromise.Entities:
