The patient was covered with variably sized subcutaneous nodules ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 cm in diameter. Other significant findings included micronodular hepatic cirrhosis, ascites (500 ml), and splenomegaly.

The patient was covered with variably sized subcutaneous nodules ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 cm in diameter. Other significant findings included micronodular hepatic cirrhosis (liver weight: 1760 grams), ascites (500 ml), and splenomegaly (weight: 260 grams).
