[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Fluid build up in the abdomen is known as ascites. And in liver cancer patient ascites is common.

Malignant ascites which need chemotherapy. 2. Hypoproteinemia which needs high protein diet and albumin injection. 3. Anemia which needs blood transfusion. Diuretics (Chat Doctor.  But better to first diagnose the cause for ascites and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wishing good health to your grandfather. Thanks.
