Dr. Wang Xuemei
Hepatic cysts are relatively common benign conditions, possibly caused by congenital developmental abnormalities or genetic factors. Additionally, liver cysts may also result from trauma, parasitic infection, or inflammation. After the development of hepatic cysts, there may be no obvious clinical symptoms. However, some patients may experience symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and discomfort in the right upper abdomen due to compression when the cysts enlarge.
