[|AI|]  Good morning Sorry to hear about your ill healthiest with these characteristics in the liver can be usually simple cysts or hydrated cysts as mentioned in your reports confirm the diagnosis of hydrated cyst (parasitic infection commonly acquired after prolonged contact with dogs and animals), I need to perform a simple serology blood test and if positive I will treat you with a a medicine (albendazole) in multiple courses over three months. This will help the cyst to calcify and degenerate over next many years (not just within days or weeks). Simple cysts (if hydrated serology negative) doesn't need any management one thing to get alerted according to the report is the size of cyst. A 7 CMS cyst sometimes need surgical removal especially if its causing persistent symptoms like pain, vomiting, jaundice, weight loss etc. Hope this would answer your question Wish you a speedy recovery
