The actual size isn't indicated, you should find out exactly how big. Normal livers can be within a certain range, and hers maybe still reasonable in size. There is no sign of fatty liver or cirrhosis, portal hypertension or biliary disease mentioned. So this is a bit odd but not alarming. Does her blood work show anything unusual?
