The goal of the American Association of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology Essential Knowledge in Interventional Pulmonology Series is to provide clinicians with concise, up-to-date reviews of important topics in the field of interventional pulmonology. This 3-year alternating rotation of primary topics will start with a focus on selected topics in malignant pleural disease. In this article, we update the reader on malignant pleural effusion in 3 parts: part 1-diagnosis, focusing on imaging and fluid biomarkers; part 2-management, with review of multimodal approaches, cost considerations, and evolving targeted therapies; and part 3-pleural mesothelioma. These reviews complement the Essential Knowledge in Interventional Pulmonology Lecture Series presented at the 2023 AABIP Annual Conference, available for viewing on the AABIP website (https://aabip.memberclicks.net/essential-knowledge-in-interventional-pulmonology-series).
