Malignant pleural effusions are a common problem for patients with metastatic disease. Most patients are treated with tube thoracostomy and sclerotherapy, although there remains no standard approach. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of bleomycin with doxycycline sclerotherapy for the treatment of malignant pleural effusions using small-bore catheters.
