| Core Tip |
Ascites in acute pancreatitis is a heterogeneous and dynamic clinical finding that may reflect the extent of pancreatic injury and the intensity of systemic inflammation. When detected early and interpreted cautiously, ascites can serve as a complementary prognostic signal that enhances bedside risk stratification without supplanting established scoring systems. Clear operational definitions and recognition of evidence limitations are essential to avoid over-interpretation. |
