44-year-old male history of alcoholic cirrhosis. Recurrent ascites with recent abdominal drain now with erythema around the site. There is diffuse body wall edema with a focus of more confluent fluid in the palpable region of concern measuring 1.9 x 2.5 cm. The collection is not loculated. Another focus of more confluent fluid measures 2.3 x 1.5 x 2.9 cm with a channel communicating with the peritoneal ascites. There is no significant surrounding soft tissue hyperemia.
Diffuse body wall edema/anasarca with two regions of confluent non-loculated fluid collections, one of which communicates with the peritoneal ascites and likely reflects a small fluid containing hernia, which may be related to the recent drainage catheter tract.
