Ascitic Fluid for Malignant Cells

The Ascitic Fluid for Malignant Cells test is used to detect cancerous cells in the ascitic fluid, which may indicate peritoneal carcinomatosis or other cancers that spread to the abdominal cavity, such as ovarian, gastric, or colorectal cancer. The ascitic fluid is collected through paracentesis, where a needle is inserted into the abdomen. The fluid is then sent to the lab for examination under a microscope. The procedure carries minimal risk, with discomfort or infection at the puncture site being the main concern. A positive result confirms the presence of malignancy in the abdomen.
