The prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma is basically 3-6 months from detection to prognosis. If hepatocellular carcinoma has already appeared to ascites, most of the cases are considered to be hypoproteinemia leading to peritoneal effusion, which is a manifestation of hepatocellular carcinoma in the decompensated stage, that is, the metabolic production of albumin by the liver is reduced, which irreversibly causes the damage of liver function and the increase of peritoneal effusion. Generally, it takes about 11 months (life span) clinically, and some may progress faster and have other lymph node metastases, which may be shorter. Therefore, in general, if ascites appears in hepatocellular carcinoma, if the ascites is bloody, the prognosis is generally poor, and basically the observation is about two weeks or at most one month (life span).
