Italian term

margine epatico all'arco

Italian to English Medical Medical: Health Care hospital discharge report
Hello all,
this is from a patient's discharge note.

Torace ventilato. Addome trattabile. **Margine epatico all'arco**. Non edemi.

I am not sure that 'liver edge on costal margin' is the sentence used normally.

Thank you!

liver edge palpable at the [right] costal margin

you're right.

FYI, about 75% of people without liver disease have liver edge palpable at or just below the right costal margin.
