Findings from chest computed tomography. A chest computed tomography (CT) revealed massive pericardial effusion and bilateral pleural effusions on admission (a). A chest CT after 8 months clearly showed pleural plaques (b yellow arrow heads). A chest CT revealed that the pleural effusion was well-controlled for 8 months (c) and 16 months (d) after the initial treatment. The maximum thicknesses of the cavity in which the pericardial effusion accumulated in Fig. 1a, c, and d were 34.8, 3.3, and 12.6 mm, respectively
