Exploring Surgical Solutions for Fluid Buildup Treating fluid buildup in the abdomen in abdominal cancer, known as malignant ascites, depends on the stage of the cancer. For curative situations like stage 3 ovarian cancer, surgery is often a crucial part of the treatment. Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC are commonly performed to address this condition. In non-curative cases, palliative chemotherapy is administered along with regular drainage of accumulated fluid guided by sonography. If this approach proves ineffective, options such as catheter placement or shunt procedures may be considered. #AbdominalCancer #OvarianCancer #HIPEC #Chemotherapy #FluidDrainage #CancerTreatment
