Hi,

Suggestive of liver disease. SGPT is mainly produced in the liver and leaks into the bloodstream when produced in excess. Thus, very high level of SGPT in the blood can be an indication of damage or problems related to the liver like fatty liver, hepatitis, cirrhosis, hemochromatosis, certain medications, gall bladder disease and gall stones. He should be thoroughly evaluated by relevant lab tests such as blood tests, and abdominal ultrasound to determine the underlying cause for proper treatment.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
