[|Human|] I just had an MRI that shows borderline hepatomegaly with numerous cystic lesions scattered throughout the liver ranging from 3-12mm, most consistent with hepatic cysts. In 2008 I had a few cysts that measured from 4-8 mm. Can diet and frequent use of laxatives affect the enlargement and cysts. Do I need to worry. Just had good numbers on liver function test
[|AI|]  Hello No, cysts in liver are not related to diet and frequent use of laxatives. You need regular check-up so that further increase in size can be assessed. Latest findings suggest mild increase in size as compared to last study. It is important to know when last investigation was done. Simple hepatic cysts are common benign liver lesions and have no malignant potential. Generally, it is asymptomatic. Surgical treatment is only advised in symptomatic cases. It usually doesn't alter liver function. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
