At the time of her initial diagnosis at an outside institution, she had a right pleural effusion and right pleural based thickening. Cytology from thoracentesis revealed only atypical cells, and histologic diagnosis from a CT-guided biopsy of right pleura concluded possible mesothelioma versus primary lung carcinoma. She was treated with erlotinib followed by sorafenib. She presented to our institution 6 months later for a second opinion. Staging and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery with talc pleurodesis of the right hemithorax was then performed to ascertain pathologic diagnosis. Multiple pleural based nodules with mucinous material covering both the visceral and parietal pleural were visualized, and thick mucinous material was suctioned from the right chest. Pathology confirmed epithelioid malignant mesothelioma. She declined further systemic therapy at the time, but she returned 5 months later with worsening shortness of breath. Chest radiograph showed opacification of the right hemithorax with deviation of the trachea contralaterally. Thoracentesis on the right hemithorax yielded 2.1<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>L of thick jelly-like fluid. Due to reaccumulation of the fluid, an indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) was placed 2 weeks later. Patient was started on chemotherapy with carboplatin and pemetrexed for 6 cycles and then continued maintenance pemetrexed. The IPC was drained daily and removed 18 months after placement. She did not have any catheter-related infection or malfunction. She later returned abroad for alternative therapies. The patient expired due to progressive disease.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Gelatinous pleural effusion may present a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.
