Is it true that liver transplants are the only cure for cirrhosis at this time?

In a human being, absolutely. The liver is the only organ that can re-generate itself so there are two options for transplant. 1. a living donor gives a small part of their liver (which grows back in a few months) to a patient that has had their own diseased liver removed, (the piece of the liver put into the patient who has had their liver removed grows and therefore it is as if the patient had an entire liver given to them). Sometimes the patient cannot use this option, so they must receive an entire liver from a deceased donor.
