The liver is the largest solid organ in our body, shouldering many important functions such as detoxification, metabolism, and storage.

However, alcohol, viruses, improper medication, etc. may cause damage to the liver. Some of our friends have no symptoms and no discomfort, but they are found to have abnormalities such as liver nodules and liver cysts during physical examinations. What should we do?

Doctors point out that liver cysts are a common benign lesion and do not require special treatment in most cases. However, if the cyst is large (for example, the diameter exceeds 10 cm) or causes symptoms such as abdominal distension, surgery may be required.

If high-echo nodules are found during the physical examination, they are usually hepatic hemangiomas, which are asymptomatic and will not become malignant in most cases. However, if the hemangioma is large or grows rapidly in a short period of time, surgical resection needs to be considered.

Although some test results do not require treatment, it is not that simple when buying insurance. Take liver cysts as an example:

Whether liver cysts can be insured depends on the shape, size, number and whether there are other diseases associated with the cysts.

For example, Super Mary No. 9 critical illness insurance requires that the liver ultrasound examination results in the past six months are normal, there are no more than 2 cysts, the maximum diameter does not exceed 5 cm, and it has not been diagnosed with polycystic liver disease or polycystic kidney disease. Only when these conditions are met can standard coverage be obtained.
