A member asked:

I have focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver, diagnosed 2 years ago. today i have mild/moderate ruq pain. has it possibly ruptured?

Dr. Mark Dickson answered

Specializes in General Surgery

No: The nodular liver lesions don't rupture. You don't describe the pattern of your pain, or your surgical history, but gallbladder disease is a common cause of RUQ pain.
