Patient's question:
The child has been preliminarily diagnosed by doctors from North Sichuan Medical College as having signs of liver cirrhosis, which has led to the expansion of blood vessels in the digestive tract and severe bleeding. Currently, there are no bleeding symptoms, but the child is at risk of another severe bleeding at any time. Due to limited conditions, we are unable to determine the cause of liver cirrhosis in such a young child. The doctors recommend transferring the child to the Children's Hospital of Chongqing or West China Hospital for further examination. We would like to consult experts in Chongqing about this situation. Do you know the factors or causes that could lead to this condition? We are willing to spend whatever it takes to save our child. She is still so young, only 12 years old, and does not have any hereditary conditions such as hepatitis B.Doctor's answer:
The condition has progressed to decompensation, and it is quite serious. It is also accompanied by varicose veins and gastrointestinal bleeding. Timely and effective treatment is necessary, otherwise sudden massive bleeding may be life-threatening.Medical advice: Once the liver becomes cirrhotic, it cannot be reversed. It is recommended to undergo surgical treatment promptly.
