Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Your prostate gland is mildly enlarged in size. It is not too enlarged and medical treatment will work. There is small amount of post void residual urine and not a concern.

The cysts in lower pole of right kidney and liver cyst are a usual finding if you are in elderly age group. Few cysts are expected in kidney and liver at your age. Fatty liver needs to be considered with liver function tests. This will tell if the liver enzymes are raised or not. Doing a lipid profile will show any raised cholesterol levels. You might need to take medications for it.
