+*This code is for diagnostic paracentesis only -- and this requires use of a needle, through the abdominal wall, with removal of peritoneal fluid.
+*For therapeutic paracentesis you construct it from components as
+**'''[[(T) Abdominal, Pelvic or Peritoneal Cavity, NOS]]'''
+**'''[[Drainage, Evacuation]]'''
+*For peritoneal fluid removed from an existing conduit (e.g. a PD catheter) for diagnostic purposes (e.g. fluid for C&S or cytology) then combine: [[(D) Abdominal, Pelvic or Peritoneal Cavity, NOS]], with [[Biopsy (non-endoscopic)]]
