Chest radiographs of a patient with a transudative pleural effusion due to biopsy confirmed systemic amyloidosis causing nephrotic syndrome. a) At presentation with right-sided pleural effusion. b) Recurrent pleural effusion following attempted talc pleurodesis which was performed due to frequent requirement for pleural aspiration. c) 6 months after placement of an indwelling pleural catheter. At this point a reduction in the volume of fluid drained indicated a “spontaneous” pleurodesis and allowed drain removal. Oliver J. Bintcliffe et al.
