Platinum-etoposide-based chemotherapy has been the standard of treatment for the past 40 years, with an overall survival of 10 months. Since 2019, the addition of immunotherapy (atezolizumab or durvalumab) to chemotherapy has become the standard of care for first-line treatment of extensive-stage SCLC following the demonstration of an improvement in overall survival in phase 3 studies.

Improve quality of life and relieve the dyspnea are the main objectives in this palliative care setting. This can be achieved by the placement of an indwelling catheter (IPC) or talc pleurodesis ideally performed by thoracoscopy route (talc poudrage). Beside to misidentify a trapped-lung, the latter requires a prolonged hospital stay and the IPC placement does not allow a high pleurodesis rate. To overcome these drawbacks, a combination of both technique could be proposed for the management of recurrent malignant pleural effusions.
