These are typical nodules (liver lumps) which are in intermediate stage between non-neoplastic regenerating nodules and overtly malignant hepatocellular carcinoma.
Dysplastic nodules are abnormal growths in the liver that can sometimes be a precursor to liver cancer. They are characterized by changes in the structure and cells of the liver tissue. Monitoring and evaluation of dysplastic nodules are important to detect potential progression to liver cancer.
Dysplastic means "relating to or exhibiting dysplasia", abnormal development of cells or tissue.
A dysplastic kidney is a kidney with abnormal development or growth. This often leads to neoplasia.

No. Spleen nodules cannot grow in human or any other lungs. Spleen nodules grow on the spleen. There are nodules that do grow in the lungs, however.
Dysplastic nevi are not actually considered cancer. Sometimes melanomas can occur within one, but rarely. The presence of dysplastic nevi are indicative of an increased risk for cancer in the future. The more in number you have, the more likely melanoma will occur, usually as a new "mole." Most doctors remove moderate to severe displastic nevi.
