A member asked:
My dad has cirrhosis of the liver, what are his options?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hepatologist: If the cirrhosis is still stable, perhaps treatment geared toward the cause should be addressed. If it is advanced and signs of liver failures exist, then hepatologist referral and evaluation for a liver transplant are options.
