When medications do not work in removing the fluid build-up, doctors opt for the ascitic drain. It is a process in which a tube is carefully inserted into the abdomen, and the ascitic fluid is drained out into a bag. This process is also called paracentesis (ascitic tap) (32). In some cases, the doctor may even go for liver transplant or transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure to manage this condition (33).
