Pleural effusions in patients with hematologic malignancy may represent malignant pleural effusion (MPE) or occur secondary to infection, treatment effects, and other common causes. The impact of MPE on prognosis in this cohort remains unclear. Indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) are routinely placed for palliation of recurrent symptomatic MPEs, but perceived concerns over infection and bleeding may limit their use in patients with hematologic malignancies. However, recent evidence suggests IPCs are both well tolerated and effective in this cohort. In this review, the evaluation of pleural effusions in hematologic malignancies and their management with an IPC are outlined.
