Hi, thanks for using Chat Doctor Hepatomegaly means enlargement of the liver, this is reported as mild or minor enlargement. Fatty changes imply that there are deposits of fat in the liver, this can progress to inflammation but in your case, this is not seen as yet. There is also deposits of fat in the pancreas. In terms of the kidney, the ultrasound found a cyst in the right kidney. An exophytic cyst is a cyst that grows from the inside out. The prostate is also enlarged, this would be expected at age 82. Fatty liver and also deposits of fat in other parts of the body is treated by increasing physical activity and changing the diet. The dietary changes actually involve reducing the use of carboy Chat Doctor. Your doctor may consider monitoring the cysts for any changes that may occur by repeated ultrasounds. I hope this helps
