Normal Infant Liver Span: 0–12 Months
The normal liver span in infants (birth to 12 months) measured in the right midclavicular line by percussion or ultrasound is 4.5–7 cm. This range accounts for growth and body size variation. Hepatomegaly (>7 cm) warrants investigation for metabolic, infectious, infiltrative, or cardiac causes.
