简要总结
Treatment of malignant ascites with the alfapump offers a new treatment option for this patient group. So far, there is no systematic analysis of patients with this indication available in the literature.
This retrospective analysis offers the possibility to assemble already existing data within a reasonably short time frame. Based on this analysis, a prospective analysis can be designed.
