Core Tip Although cirrhosis is frequently categorized as a high-risk condition for adult RSV infection, direct evidence supporting this classification remains limited. Recent real-world data indicate that RSV-related hospitalizations among patients with cirrhosis are uncommon and not independently associated with increased mortality, in contrast to the well-established risk observed in cardiopulmonary and renal diseases. Consequently, current RSV vaccination recommendations for individuals with cirrhosis rely largely on extrapolation rather than robust cirrhosis-specific evidence. Until stronger data become available, RSV vaccination in cirrhosis should be individualized, taking into account age and co-morbidities, while prioritizing multicenter studies to better define true risk and clinical benefit.
