Clinically, there is no situation that the patient will not live long after ascites is pumped out, but the individual patient will not live long after ascites is closely related to the primary disease, complications, malnutrition and other factors. 1. Primary disease: ascites caused by liver cancer and cirrhosis, in order to prevent ascites infection from aggravating the occurrence of intestinal adhesions, etc., will be treated by pumping and releasing ascites, which is favorable to the condition and generally will not cause life expectancy to decrease. If you can’t correct the original disease in time after pumping ascites, it may lead to the deterioration of the condition. 2. Complications: some patients need to pump the peritoneal fluid to clarify the nature of ascites and to reduce the pressure of ascites through indwelling drainage tubes, in the process of pumping and draining, serious infections may occur, which may threaten the life. 3. Malnutrition: some patients’ ascites is bloody, because ascites contains a large number of albumin and red blood cells, after pumping ascites, the pressure in the abdominal cavity is reduced, prompting the blood to seep out of the blood vessels into the abdominal cavity, which worsens anemia and hypoproteinemia and threatens life. To summarize, whether life expectancy is affected after ascites extraction is closely related to the original disease, complications and malnutrition, etc. Whether ascites extraction is needed needs to be judged by the doctor according to the condition.
