Hepatomegaly means enlarged liver. Diffuse parenchymal disease means that the liver cells, throughout the liver, are affected by a disease process. Complex cyst indicates that it is not a simple fluid filled cyst, but that there may be blood or other elements involved in the cyst. This type of radiologic and/or surgical pathologic reading is fairly serious and requires follow-up with a GI specialist (who is also a knowledgeable specialist in diseases of the liver).
