Pseudo-Meigs syndrome is accompanied with pleural effusion, ascites and a benign or malignant tumor of ovary, tubes, uterus, round ligament or colon. We reported a case of hypoxia in an ovarian cancer patient with moderate ascites after head-down tilt position for central venous catheterization under general anesthesia. Massive pleural effusion was detected on portable chest X-ray, which was not observed in a preoperative radiologic test. The patient had no respiratory symptoms and breath sound was normal in both lungs prior to surgery. The pleural effusion was resolved by a chest tube insertion.
