Cirrhosis is a diffuse pathological process, characterised by fibrosis and conversion of normal liver architecture to structurally abnormal nodules known as regenerative nodules.
It can arise from a variety of causes and is the final stage of any chronic liver disease. It can lead to portal hypertension, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. In general, it is considered to be irreversible in its advanced stages, although there can be significant recovery if the underlying cause is treated.
