This results come from Liver function tests which represent extent of liver damage or function in association with underlying conditions.

SGOT-49,mildly elevated than normal being 0-35U/L.SGPT-111, highly elevated normal being 0-35U/L.Such results may indicate conditions like Liver disease (alcohol cirrhosis,fatty liver,fulminant hepatitis,hepatic congestion,liver shock),Myocardial Infarction, drugs like anti hypertensives,antibiotics usage,malignancy,renal or pulmonary infarction,acute pancreatitis and lot more.

Why were the tests done?What is the history of your father like alcoholism,smoking,drugs used,previous illness,Hypertension,Diabetes, or any significant surgeries?Age?Previous investigations like other blood tests or body scans and their details are required to exactly determine status of your father's health.So get this information in your next post and seek the help of a professional from this forum or hospital.All the best.
