Pseudo-Meigs’ Syndrome is defined as malignant ovarian or benign, other than fibroma, tumours leading to ascites and pleural effusion. It is a rare condition. We report the case of an old woman with dyspnea and abdominal pain, which investigation was consistent with pseudo-Meigs’ Syndrome, however definitive diagnosis was not able to be determined. A palliative treatment was decided. We discuss the investigation of pleural effusion and ascites, the management of pseudo-Meigs’ Syndrome as palliative options when surgery is not an option.
