A 58-year-old man with H/O recurrent pleural effusions has increased dyspnea and oedema in his lower extremities. His legs and feet have bilateral pitting oedema, and his fingers and toes have yellow, dystrophic nails. A significant right pleural effusion might be seen on a chest radiograph. A yellow nail syndrome diagnosis is suspected, and thoracentesis is done.
