Management should focus on Decompensated CLD rather than the Gallbladder. If the patient continues to have decompensated disease in the form of jaundice or ascites, should think about Liver transplant depending on patient’s condition and medical status.

It just indicates features s/o Chronic Cholecystitis. It has no relation to Cirrhosis and nothing actively needs to be done for it
