What Does A Prominence Of The Right Lobe Liver Mean?
My nephrologist noted a prominence of the right lobe liver. they seem not to be concerned and want me to wait for my appointment 2 months away. I am concerned and wonder if I need to be. If this is cancer would I not be losing weight? I am not.. thank you

Hello,
Kindly provide your ultrasound report to give comment on that. For further workup of enlargement of a liver right lobe, you can investigate with SGOT, SGPT enzyme estimation. Sometimes mild enlargement can be idiopathic. Don't directly think about cancer, in cancer, growth would have to be seen.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
