A member asked:
Please tell me what is the average life expectancy of someone with liver cirrhosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: The life expectancy is very variable and depends on the cause and stage of cirrhosis, state of compensation, development of malignancy etc. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion about life expectancy for a given patient. See this site for more info. http://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/cirrhosis-liver.
