You findings suggests mildly enlarged liver.
It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,obesity,metabolic disorder,drug toxicity,tumour etc.
You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,lipid profile,liver function test,urine RE/ME.
Mildly enlarged liver often get reverse with treatment of underlying cause.

Your findings also suggest left sided ureterocele.
