Innumerable simple cysts throughout the enlarged liver and both kidneys consistent with known polycystic disease. Most of the cysts demonstrate pure fluid density, a few show slightly increased density (15-20 HU), likely representing old hemorrhage and/or proteinaceous material. No intracystic high density to suggest acute hemorrhage into a cyst.
Case Discussion
Polycystic liver disease and multicystic kidneys. No cysts within the other solid viscera.
