A member asked:

Liver biopsy: section reveals liver parenchyma, shows 12 portal tracts. scattered portal tracts areas are infiltrated by lymphocytic inflammatory?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

?what does Ur Doctor: The doctor who advised you to have a liver biopsy is expected to tell you about this report. What did he/she say about the lymphocytes in the portal tracts? To my mind, it implies some degree of hepatitis going on. But I do not have the results of your Liver function tests(LFT's). That would help us in the interpretation
