Chandramohan, Anuradha; Mittal, Rohin
- Abstract
Computed tomography revealed atypical features of loculated ascites scalloping the liver and mild omental thickening [Figure 1]. Investigations revealed high serum ascites albumin gradient (SAAG), low protein massive ascites with negative tests for tuberculosis, Budd-Chiari syndrome and malignant ascites. Further, magnetic resonance imaging in October 2019 revealed multiloculated cystic lesions filling the peritoneal cavity [Figure 2], further confirmed by laparoscopy [Figure 3] suggestive of cystic mesothelioma.
