    Abstract:
    Since the prognosis of patients with malignant ascites is generally poor, the establishment of a therapeutic plan should be done as soon as possible. In order to select the most suitable antitumor agent, a drug-sensitivity test was done by MTT assay using fresh autologous tumor cells as targets. Autologous tumor cells were collected from their ascitic fluids. Results obtained here indicate a possible strategy for the treatment of patients with malignant ascites by MTT assay.
