Hello,

The most frequent cause of focal calcified liver is inflammation, with granulomatous disease being the most common cause. If you already rule out any other cause of granulomatous calcified it possibly just observe.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
