My Wife Has Kidney Failure And Cirrhosis Of The Liver,

My wife has kidney failure and cirrhosis of the liver, stage 4. Dialysis is taking the fluid off from the waste down, but there is a lot of fluid gathering in the abdominal area. One GI Dr. wants to install an internal cath with external release but I understand there is an infection increase. What is the best way to remove this fluid build up in the abdominal area.
