Ascites is common in both benign and malignant conditions. In palliative patients, it is a significant contributor to pain, discomfort, and impaired mobility. Drainage of ascitic fluid can be performed through various interventional procedures such as repeated large volume paracentesis/drain insertion, indwelling peritoneal catheters, peritoneovenous ...

Immunological Investigations, 2018
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 3rd most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. It has evolved different immune escape mechanisms, which might include emergence of lymphoid and myeloid regulatory cells.

Plasmodium falciparum in ascitic fluid
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1970Abstract This is believed to be the first report of malaria parasites in a haemorrhagic ascitic fluid: the patient had primary carcinoma of the liver. The P. falciparum parasites, asexual forms and gametocytes, were living in vivo; they were morphologically normal and persisted in this unusual situation for at least 13 days.

Clinics and Research in Hepatology and Gastroenterology, 2021
Abdominal paracentesis is performed as a diagnostic test in children with ascites. Serum albumin to ascitic fluid albumin gradient (SAAG) is frequently used in adults to distinguish types of portal hypertension. We aim to investigate the utilization of SAAG and other biomarkers in determining the etiology of significant ascites in children.In this ...
