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
