Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Dr ! My mom is 78 yrs old,having Hepatitis B + . Virus Count around 1 lakh.Problem she has now is in ultrasound report there is Tumer in her liver.Report shows, Liver shows well defined hypoechoic SOL with well defined margin of size 32 x 30mm in right lobe of liver. Please advice.
noted history of hepatitits B infection and liver tumor on ultrasound report. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon or a gastroenterologist, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. benign vs malignant tumor lesions of the liver must be ruled-out. one important thing that must be considered is hepatocellular carcinoma, which has a high risk of occurrence if you have a history of hepatitis B. other diagnostics (such as ct-scan, liver function tests, tumor markers, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
