A hepatic cyst appears less likely. Adrenal glands are not enlarged. Now lymphadenopathy seen urinary bladder is unremarkable. Prostate is enlarged. Arterial sclerotic plaque in the abdominal aorta iliac arteris and SMA.

There are a variety of conditions and diseases that can cause low attenuation lesions in the liver. Cancerous and benign growths are just among a few of the causes of liver lesions."
