Hi.
Read and understood the history of bilateral pleural effusion. Negative for TB and Cancer meaning by cytology.
It is better to repeat the tests.
The development of a cyst all of a sudden can be a cold abscess.
I would advise to have ultrasonography and aspiration, if there is cold abscess, get your Father started on anti-tubercular treatment.
