Edit from another person:
Cystic Fibrosis is not an infection, it is an inherited genetic disorder. Nor is it restricted to the liver and lungs, as my mother has it in her uterus and ovaries. However, I believe the (incomplete) question was about what it does. Basically, it causes tissues to become hard tumors, which can continue to grow in size significantly.
I'm going to answer the question the best that i can. I have been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, It is when the mucus in your lungs and digestive system is thicker and sticky! It can cause lung failure and usually people with CF will not life as long.
Cystic fibrosis is considered a rare disease. It affects only 30,000 in the United States and 70,000 worldwide.
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease that causes dysfunction in the CFTR protein.
