The importance of serum and pleural fluid level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF fluid/serum ratio in the differential diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma-related pleural effusion

The importance of serum and pleural fluid level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF fluid/serum ratio in the differential diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma-related pleural effusion

Aim of the study : Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the parameters that has been studied in differential diagnosis of malignant fluids. This study is aimed at evaluate applicability of serum, fluid VEGF level and fluid to serum VEGF ratio in the diagnosis of malignant pleural meso...
