ABSTRACT
We present a 65-year-old ex-smoker patient, in which respiratory
manifestations with erratic bone pain treated with common medications,
began a year before he was atended for dyspnea, cough and chest pain at
“San Antonio” Basic Hospital, Riobamba city, Chimborazo province, Ecuador.
The patient presented a large pleural effusion of 1500 ml of serohematic
fluid. Cytological study was positive for malignancy to rule out
mesothelioma. Surgery was performed, histologically malignant
mesothelioma was confirmed in stage IV and treated with chemotherapy. But
the patient worsens progressively until death. Authors emphasized that lung
cancer paraneoplastic manifestations were more frequent in not pleural and
parenchymal location. They also called attention to patients´ symptoms,
which began one year before the respiratory condition appeared.
