title: [Ultrasonically guided intraperitoneal catheterization for ascites drainage or intraperitoneal chemotherapy].
abstract: A new method for drainage of ascites is presented: ultrasound guided intraperitoneal catheterization. Forty-six drainages were performed in 17 patients. The duration of drainage was from one to 12 days. Two patients had slight complications during drainage. Puncture was easily done even in cases of difficult or impossible conventional puncture. The method provided very effective drainage. Further, we present ultrasound guided intraperitoneal catheterization for chemotherapy in ovarian cancer. In eight patients 51 catheterizations were performed. Three punctures were primarily unsuccessful, but successful on the second attempt. There were no complications in these or in other cases.
