Abstract
Postpartum ascites in preeclampsia and eclampsia is a rare complication associated with increased maternal morbidity and mortality. Here, we present a case of postpartum ascites, primarily localized in the gastrointestinal interstitium. Medical management with intravenous albumin to increase oncotic pressure, with piggybacked intravenous diuretics to facilitate fluid removal, showed significant clinical improvement.
