The correct answer is Cirrhosis.

Cirrhosis is a disease in which normal healthy liver tissue becomes damaged and is replaced with scar tissue. This is caused by long term drinking/alcohol abuse or chronic hepatitis. It can be fatal depending on the type of cirrhosis and whether or not it can be treated.
