liver cirrhosis

Liver cirrhosis is the end-stage consequence of progressive hepatic fibrosis from multiple causes, carrying high morbidity from portal hypertension complications and hepatocellular carcinoma development. Compensated cirrhosis management focuses on addressing the underlying aetiology and monitoring for decompensation events. Anti-fibrotic agents, non-selective beta-blockers for varices prevention, and TIPS procedures are central to managing decompensated disease.
