Ascites due to liver disease

Hepatic ascites refers to the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity due to causes such as cirrhosis and portal hypertension. The presence of ascites is an important sign that cirrhosis has progressed to the decompensated stage of liver function. The main symptoms include abdominal distension, abdominal pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, discomfort in the liver area, and low-grade fever, accompanied by liver palms, spider angiomas, jaundice, abdominal distension, abdominal masses, and varicose veins in the abdominal wall.
