  • 1.1. Histocytologically proven pleural malignancy, OR
  • 1.2. Otherwise unexplained pleural effusion in the context of clinically proven cancer elsewhere, OR
  • 1.3. Radiologically proven pleural malignancy as diagnosed in normal clinical practice on thoracic CT in the absence of histocytological proof
  • 2 .Expected survival greater than 2 months
  • 3. Written informed consent to trial participation.
  • 4. Male or female participants
  • 5. Lower Age Limit 18 years

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1. Age < 18 years
  • 2. Females who are pregnant or lactating
  • 3. Patient unable to provide informed consent
  • 4. Previous attempts at pleurodesis on same side as effusion requiring management
  • 5. Previously documented adverse reaction to talc or lidocaine
  • 6. Community services unable to drain indwelling pleural catheter at least twice per week
  • 7. Evidence of extensive lung entrapment on CXR or CT, or significant fluid loculation on ultrasound scan, to a level which would normally be a contraindication to attempted talc pleurodesis or IPC insertion
  • 8. Other contraindication to indwelling pleural catheter insertion
