Benign pleural effusions are rarely treated with pleurodesis. We report a case of left-sided pleurodesis in a patient with right-sided destroyed lung. A 83-year-old man with right-sided destroyed lung was hospitalized because of reccurent left-sided massive pleural effusion due to cardiomyopathy. The patient was treated with left pleurodesis. He was then discharged from hospital and given diuretics therapy. At the one-year follow-up examinations, dyspnea and effusion had not recorded.
