Is there a lump in the right upper abdomen?

The location of abdominal mass to determine the location of the mass can understand the source of the mass. The mass of a certain part mostly comes from the organs of that part. For example, the mass in the right upper abdomen mostly comes from the liver, gallbladder or hepatic flexure colon. The location of pedicled mass, mesenteric mass and omental mass varied. If there is obstruction, the mass may be in this segment. If there is no obstruction, it mostly comes from mesentery, omentum or retroperitoneal organs. Multiple and scattered cases were common in mesenteric lymph node tuberculosis, peritoneal tuberculosis or abdominal metastatic carcinoma.

The size of the mass is around the umbilicus. A smaller mass may be an enlarged mesenteric lymph node. Most of the huge masses occurred in the liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney, ovary and uterus. If the size of the mass varies or even disappears, it may be caused by inflated intestinal curvature.

The shape of the mass is round and the surface is smooth, most of which are cysts. Irregular shape, surface is not smooth, hard, mostly malignant tumor, inflammatory tumor or tuberculosis mass. Cord shaped or tubular mass with variable shape in a short time may be Ascaris mass or intussusception. There is a smooth oval mass in the right upper abdomen, which may be gallbladder or kidney. The enlarged spleen can touch the splenic notch.
