==Overview==
Ascites is a gastroenterological term for an excess accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity. Life threatening causes are [[acute liver failure]], [[hepatic failure]], and [[hepatorenal syndrome]]. Common causes are [[Budd-Chiari syndrome]], [[malignancy]], and [[cirrhosis]].
Life-threatening causes of ascites are [[acute liver failure]], [[hepatic failure]], and [[hepatorenal syndrome]]. Common causes of ascites are [[Budd-Chiari syndrome]], [[malignancy]], and [[cirrhosis]]. Less common causes of ascites are the conditions which may lead to fetal ascites, neonatal ascites, and infantile ascites.

Overview

Life-threatening causes of ascites are acute liver failure, hepatic failure, and hepatorenal syndrome. Common causes of ascites are Budd-Chiari syndrome, malignancy, and cirrhosis. Less common causes of ascites are the conditions which may lead to fetal ascites, neonatal ascites, and infantile ascites.
