The normal size of the liver is usually 25 centimeters long, 15 centimeters wide, and about 6 centimeters thick.
Generally speaking, the size of the liver varies from person to person with certain physical conditions. The human liver is about 2% of the total body weight. If it is more than that, a relatively large liver may be the result of infectious liver disease, sludge liver disease, early cirrhosis, fatty liver, schistosomiasis and other diseases.
If the liver is relatively downshifted or reduced in size, it is common in diseases such as emphysema or massive pleural effusion, or in diseases such as compensated cirrhosis and flaky necrosis of hepatocytes in liver failure.
It is recommended that patients presenting with changes in liver size and position should go to the hospital in time to be professionally treated by a doctor.
