Nephrologist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for the query.
From the description of the report; following three problems are identified:
1) Liver cirrhosis which means advanced disease of the liver which can be due to various reasons.
2) HCC is cancer of the liver which is often seen as a complication of cirrhosis
3) Portal vein thrombosis which means clots and obstruction in the veins draining the liver.
You need to see a hepatologist/ oncologist ASAP. They can assess the patient and advice about further treatment and prognosis
Hope this helps
good luck
