AI overview
Liver cirrhosis is a chronic condition where healthy liver tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue and regenerating nodules, usually as a result of long-term liver damage. This scarring makes it harder for blood to flow through the liver and prevents it from functioning normally, which is why the condition is serious and requires medical attention.
