Malignant pleural mesothelioma mimics thoracic empyema: A case report

Figure 1 Initial chest images suggesting an impression of thoracic empyema. A: At the initial visit, chest radiography revealed a large pleural effusion in the right thorax (orange arrows) with almost complete opacification of the right lung field; B: Coronal view of chest contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed multiple right-side lobulated pleural effusions (orange arrows); C: Axial view of chest contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed multiple right-side lobulated pleural effusions (orange arrows).
