Cirrhosis is scarring of the liver that builds silently over years, and many people learn they have it only when complications appear. The liver has a remarkable ability to repair itself when the cause of damage is removed, which is why curing hepatitis C or stopping alcohol can sometimes partly reverse early scarring. Once cirrhosis is advanced, though, a transplant is the only cure, and very few medicines target the scarring itself. Trials are now testing the first treatments designed to stop or reverse liver scarring, especially in cirrhosis caused by fatty liver disease.
