Abstract

Anasarca is a severe and generalized form of edema with widespread subcutaneous tissue swelling. It is different from slight swelling or oedema that occurs mainly in the feet. Accumulation of fluid may occur due to illness like heart failure, kidney failure, hepatic failure and nephrotic syndrome that change the proteins of the body, affect the balance of fluids, or create abnormalities in the blood vessels or lymphatic system. A selection of diagnostic methods can be used in a challenge to make a diagnosis of anasarca. Formerly anasarca and the underlying problem is diagnosed, suitable measures will be made to treat the problem.
