Description

Safe & Effective Fluid Removal for Ascites in Liver Patients Paracentesis is a simple, safe, and highly effective procedure to remove excess fluid (ascites) from the abdomen — commonly seen in patients with liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, alcohol-related liver disease, or liver cancer. At Dr. Chetan Kalal’s Liver Clinic in Mumbai, we offer Ultrasound-Guided Paracentesis — a painless, daycare procedure performed under expert supervision for immediate relief from abdominal discomfort, bloating, and breathlessness caused by fluid build-up. ________________________________________ Why Might You Need Paracentesis? Ascites (fluid in the stomach) happens when liver damage causes increased pressure and fluid leakage in the abdomen. If left untreated, it can lead to: • Difficulty in breathing • Early satiety (feeling full quickly) • Risk of infection (SBP - Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis) • Kidney dysfunction • Repeated hospitalizations ________________________________________ Benefits of Ultrasound-Guided Paracentesis: • Immediate symptom relief from abdominal distension • Minimally invasive & quick recovery • Safe procedure with minimal discomfort • Prevents complications of uncontrolled ascites • Part of comprehensive cirrhosis & liver care ________________________________________ What To Expect During The Procedure: • Evaluation & Ultrasound Guidance for accurate fluid removal • Sterile, painless tapping of ascitic fluid • Lab testing of ascitic fluid if needed • Personalized advice on diet, salt restriction & medications • Guidance for future liver care or liver transplant if required ________________________________________ Why Choose Dr. Chetan Kalal? With expertise in advanced liver care and cirrhosis management, Dr. Chetan Kalal ensures that every paracentesis procedure is done with precision, safety, and compassion. Our centre provides holistic liver care — from diagnosis to transplant — ensuring better outcomes and a better quality of life for liver patients. ________________________________________ Book Your Consultation: If you are suffering from recurrent fluid in the abdomen or cirrhosis-related complications — get expert care now.
