Is it important to have multiple cysts on the liver?

The severity of multiple cysts of the liver depends on the individual case. Most asymptomatic multiple cysts of the liver are not serious. A small percentage of symptomatic cysts are more serious. 1. Asymptomatic polycystic cysts: Most patients with liver polycystic cysts have no clinical manifestations. There are also usually no signs or symptoms of jaundice, liver failure or portal hypertension. Clinically, patients with asymptomatic multiple liver cysts do not need to be treated and regular review is sufficient. 2. Symptomatic multilocular cysts: a small number of patients have postprandial abdominal distension and even shortness of breath due to the large size of liver cysts. Surgery will only be performed for patients with multiple cysts with serious symptoms and complications, and the general surgical method is partial hepatectomy plus wide open window surgery for liver cysts. For patients with multiple cysts on the liver, they should go to the relevant departments of regular hospitals as soon as possible and be treated under the guidance of professional physicians, so as to avoid delaying the condition and leading to adverse results.
