HughW Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Not sure this quite fits what I can read, but a possibility?... Causes of edema which are generalized to the whole body can cause edema in multiple organs and peripherally. For example, severe heart failure can cause pulmonary edema, pleural effusions, ascites and peripheral edema. Such severe systemic edema is called anasarca.
