QuestionHello doctor,
I went for an ultrasound, the ultrasound results showed an enlarged liver, chronic hepatitis, and a small amount of abdominal fluid. So the doctor asked me to ask if liver enlargement, hepatitis, and abdominal fluid are symptoms of what disease? I thank the doctor.

Answered by Master, Doctor Vu Tan Phuc - Department of Medical Examination & Internal Medicine, Vinmec Phu Quoc International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver, hepatitis, and abdominal fluid? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Normally there is no peritoneal fluid or a very small amount. If you have an ultrasound with an enlarged liver and chronic hepatitis, and also have peritoneal fluid, you should see a hepatologist to have a comprehensive assessment of your condition (blood tests, imaging, .. .). You do not need to be examined immediately, but should take advantage of the early examination time.
If you still have questions about an enlarged liver, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
