Hi, I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. your spleen size is increasing. now there are many causes for that. but as you have no tumour according to your usg report. you have prominent vein on abdomen. so you may have portal hypertension due to any reason. Which leads to increase the spleen size. Thare are many sites for portocaval anastomosis. One of which is around umbilicus. So you need to consult physician. Investigate for that and take treatment accordingly. hope i have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. wish you a very good health.
