Abstract
Ascites in ovarian cancer can reach any volume. As a rule, a small effusion without clinical manifestations is not removed, it regresses against the background of systemic chemotherapy. In ovarian cancer ascites is rarely very large, but the abdomen can be huge due to the combination of several litres of fluid with a large mass of tumour. Ascites that interferes with normal life is necessarily evacuated. Due to the accumulation of fluid can cause shortness of breath and swelling of the legs, impaired breathing and nutrition - vomiting just eaten and drunk. In such situations, a laparocentesis must be performed.
