Chronic Liver Disease / Cirrhosis of the liver?
Cirrhosis of the liver is late stage liver disease, in which healthy liver tissue has been gradually replaced with scar tissue. This is a result of long-term, chronic hepatitis. Hepatitis is inflammation in your liver, which has many causes. When inflammation is ongoing, your liver attempts to repair itself by scarring. But too much scar tissue prevents your liver from working properly. The end stage is chronic liver failure.
Preventive measures
- Avoid alcohol abuse
- Regular screening for hepatitis B and hepatitis C
- Vaccination for hepatitis A, B and C
- Avoid hepatotoxic drugs and over the counter medications
- Maintain body weight and lipid profile to avoid non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Consequences of decompensated cirrhosis and long standing portal hypertension:
- Upper G.I bleed
- Jaundice
- Ascites or accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity
- Hepatic encephalopathy, a neuropsychiatric symptom caused due to high levels of ammonia
- Easy bruising and G.I bleed due to deficiency of clotting factors produced in the liver
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
The goal of treatment is to prevent progression of disease and manage complications, Liver transplant is the only life saving measure for decompensated cirrhosis.
