Peritoneal Fluid for Cytology Price in Bangladesh

What is Peritoneal Fluid for Cytology?

This test analyzes peritoneal fluid to detect cancer cells, infections, or other abnormalities. Preparation typically requires fasting before the procedure.

During the test, a healthcare provider performs a procedure called paracentesis, where a needle is inserted into the abdominal cavity to collect fluid. Risks include infection, bleeding, or organ injury.

After the test, patients may experience mild discomfort or bloating. Results are examined for abnormal cells or signs of disease, with cancer being a common concern.

Conditions like liver disease, infection, or recent abdominal surgery may influence fluid quality or the test's results.

What to expect & how to prepare

Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Peritoneal Fluid for Cytology result rather than self-diagnosing.
