Abstract

Decompensated liver disease (DCLD) is a medical emergency that has a high mortality rate. DCLD is also associated with other complications such as visceral bleeding, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, etc. In this case report, a 49-year-old male developed DCLD with portal hypertension and grade-I encephalopathy. Prognosis is generally poor in such conditions, but liver transplantation could be an option in end-stage liver failure.
