Karen,
My Helio had a liver nodule removed during his adrenalectomy/insulinoma surgery a few months ago. The histopath came back as hepatic hyperplasia which could have many different origins. The pathology report mentioned in rare cases being a precursor to lymphoma, my vet was more concerned that it could be cause by helicobacter. Helio is doing fine on lupron and melatonin implants for his other issues and has had no liver issues or signs of lymphoma. It appears as if it didn't really mean anything. Don't give up hope!
Laura, RVT
