Answer 2

I believe that your question is supposed to be asked this way:
What kind of jaundice is manifested in LIVER CIRRHOSIS?

The answer is HEPATIC. That actually refers to the cause of jaundice. Any condition that damages the cells of the liver will result to a decrease in the liver's ability to metabolise and excrete bilirubin leading to a buildup in the blood causing jaundice.Hepatitis, hepatotoxicity and alcoholic liver disease are some of the conditions that can lead to liver cirrhosis which can cause jaundice.

While pre-hepatic jaundice (or hemolytic) are those usually caused by hemolysis or breakdown of red blod cells such as in cases of malaria and sickle cell anemia.

Post-hepatic jaundice (or obstructive) are those caused by an interruption of the bile drainage such as an obstruction due to gallbladder stones,pancreatic cancer, liver flukes,etc.

Answer 3

Hepatic. Because the liver structure gets damaged ultimately.

Answer 4

"Cardiac" cirrhosis? Is that to say, loss of blood pressure and liver shock?

Answer 5

All jaundice comes from the liver, plain and simple answer.

Answer 6
