What does mild hepatomegaly with diffuse fatty changes mean?

0

It means that your liver is mildly enlarged, hepato – liver and megaly = large. The fatty changes are usually associated with drinking too much alcohol for too many years. There are other causes but that is the primary one. If this is your case then it would be best to stop drinking before it gets worse. If drinking is not the problem then your doctor needs to look at other possibilities such as problems with your endocrine system and exposure to some chemical compounds. The liver has a remarkable ability to regenerate its tissue as long as the source of the damage to it is removed.
