| decompensated cirrhosis |
Also referred to as "unstable cirrhosis." Decompensated cirrhosis consists of scarring over of the liver associated with symptoms of ascites, encephalopathy (confusion due to toxins normally cleared by the liver) or variceal bleeding (severe gastro-intestinal bleeding). Liver transplantation should be considered at this time.
