Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Your report shows healed calcified granulomatous lesions.It may be due to many reasons like sequel of past hepatic infection,systemic disorders,autoimmune diseases,mass etc.
This is a benign condition and doesn't require any treatment.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
