Hello,
With the question “Is cirrhosis of the liver F0, F1 dangerous? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Hepatitis B is a disease caused by the HBV virus, if the infection becomes chronic it is important to prevent and minimize damage to the liver, if treated. With proper treatment, the prognosis is usually very good. However, it is not always necessary to immediately treat with antiviral drugs, but it is necessary to monitor and test the status of the liver as well as the body so that the treatment can be most effective. Your need to do is to monitor and examine your liver periodically, limit excessive exercise, supplement nutrition and limit the consumption of substances harmful to the liver.
You need to understand more about fibrosis grade measured on a semi-quantitative scale (Fibroscan or other methods). Currently, this classification is graded 5 levels from 0 to 4, with 0 indicating no fibrosis, 1 indicating fibrosis limited to the portal tract, 2 referring to periportal or porto-portal fibrosis, 3 being bridging fibrosis causes structural deformation (but no obvious cirrhosis) and 4 is cirrhosis. It is important to understand that the use of the scoring system for the above classification does not completely replace histopathology with biopsy and can be mixed with comorbidities, such as fatty liver, liver disease, and liver disease. chemical and alcohol.
If you have F0, F1 ultrasound results, there is nothing dangerous, you should have periodic liver exams to be closely monitored by your doctor.
If you still have questions about liver fibrosis F0, F1 is dangerous, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
