What are the causes of liver nodules

summary

Because the school organized blood donation activities, so I also participated, has been very happy, but not long after the blood donation activities, the teacher called me in the past, said I may have liver nodules, need to go to the hospital to do a detailed examination. Now let's learn the causes of liver nodules.

What are the causes of liver nodules

The first reason is that cirrhosis is more common in China, most of which are post hepatitis cirrhosis, and a few of which are alcoholic cirrhosis and schistosomiasis cirrhosis. Due to active prevention and treatment in the early stage of liver cirrhosis, it can be reversed or no longer progress, but the late stage will seriously affect the quality of life of patients, and even endanger their lives, so the prevention and treatment of liver cirrhosis is very important.

The second reason is: liver nodules are caused by various factors of liver fibrous tissue hyperplasia and caused by liver trabecular arrangement disorder. It may be related to the local decrease of blood supply or vascular malformation caused by inflammation and trauma, which may lead to the atrophy of liver cells and the compensatory hyperplasia of liver tissue. It is a manifestation of the local "regenerative degeneration" of liver, which needs to be further confirmed.

The third reason is that the exact cause of FNH is not clear. It has been found in animal experiments and clinical examinations that ovulation inhibition agents can cause some changes in liver tissue. There are also cases of FNH during pregnancy and female patients with Cushing's syndrome, indicating that the occurrence of FNH is related to sex hormone metabolism.

matters needing attention

The occurrence of liver nodules must prevent the further deterioration of the disease. If the disease develops further, ascites may appear. About 40% of patients with liver cirrhosis will turn into liver cancer. This is a vicious circle, and we need to treat it as soon as possible.
