Core Tip	Cirrhosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. Recent data suggest treatment of underlying etiology can result in regression of fibrosis and result in improved outcomes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of different clinical manifestations of cirrhosis including compensated cirrhosis, ascites, varices, hepatic encephalopathy, bacterial infections and hepatocellular carcinoma. The review aims to discuss the different modalities used for diagnosis, screening and surveillance, current medical therapies, endoscopic interventions, surgical options and interventional radiology procedures.
