Question: how long do you have to live with end stage liver cancer?
Answer: Prognosis. Patients with compensated cirrhosis have a median survival of 6–12 years. Decompensation occurs in 5%–7% annually; median survival then declines to 2 years. Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores are the most widely used tools for prognostication.
