Abstract

<p>We present the perioperative care of a giant ovarian tumor accompanied by a large amount of pleural effusion and ascites in a 53-year-old woman. Her right lung severely collapsed, and her mediastinum deviated to the left on admission. At first, 6,140 mL of pleural effusion was drained for seven days, and then 3,200 mL of ascites was drained on the day before the operation. We focused on hypoxemia at the induction of general anesthesia, reexpansion pulmonary edema, and hemodynamic changes during drainage and removal of the tumor. Providing further gradual drainage is essential, especially when the lung collapse is severe.</p>
