Hi,
If patient of cirrhosis is in compensated phase of liver disease in hep.B infection then he might be cured/survived longer with antiviral drugs with supportive therapy.But once de-compensated in form of ascitis/hepatic encephalopathy/G I bleed/renal failure then only cure is liver transplantation with supportive care.It carries very good success rate.Consult your Hepatologist/transplant surgeon with your father present clinical and blood reports
