====Pathology====
'''Secondary liver tumours''' are the most common secondary malignancy. They can be present as nodules or as diffuse infiltration along the portal tracts. Grossly, the liver is enlarged, turgid and friable with many minute pale foci. The whole organ is diffusely pale. Microscopically, tumour cells are seen to spread diffusely through the sinusoids.
'''Splenomegaly''' occurs in multicentric lymphosarcoma. Splenic enlargement may be marked if any form of lymphosarcoma is in leukaemic phase.
