The examination of ascitic fluid is an important part in the diagnosis and control of gastrointestinal diseases. Different etiological conditions and pathological ways help develop different types of ascitic fluid. Variation of protein content (transudates/exsudates), variation of cells lead to different diagnosis. The following paper describes methods, diagnosis and differential diagnosis and limits of the cytological ascitic fluid examination.
