Insertion of a peritoneovenous shunt is an effective method of treatment of refractory ascites although not free of complications. The incidence of them varies between 20-50%, being obstruction, infection and disseminated intravascular coagulation the more frequent. We report a case of a patient that presented with ectopic ascites in cellular subcutaneous tissue one year after the placement of the shunt. This complication was due to an increase of ascites. Treated with paracentesis the ascites decreased and the ectopic ascites resolved.
