Hello

USG findings suggest mildly enlarged liver with fat deposition.Liver enlargement may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,inflammation,fat deposition(fatty liver)etc.
In your case,liver enlargement may be due to fat deposition in liver as you have fatty liver.

Fatty liver is a reversible condition.It can be reversed by diet and life style changes.
You should also avoid fried and junk food.
Increase your physical activity in the form of walking and exercise.
You may also need investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,liver function test,lipid profile.

Small hepatic cyst in liver usually doesn't require many treatment.It may only require follow up.
Other findings in liver are normal.

Take Care
