OBJECTIVES Acute-on-chronic liver failure is associated with numerous consecutive organ failures and a high short-term mortality rate. Molecular adsorbent recirculating system therapy has demonstrated beneficial effects on the distinct symptoms, but the associated mortality data remain controversial. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of acute-on-chronic liver failure patients receiving either sta...
We present the case of a 55-year-old white female with no history of liver or gastrointestinal disease, admitted with acute liver failure following a trial of cyproheptadine for appetite stimulation. The patient was managed with supportive care, symptomatic treatment, and discontinuation of cyproheptadine. To our knowledge, this is the first described case of cyproheptadine-induced acute liver ...
Liver failure is a clinical syndrome of various etiologies, manifesting as jaundice, encephalopathy, coagulopathy and circulatory dysfunction, which result in subsequent multiorgan failure. Clinically, liver failure is classified into four categories: acute, subacute, acute-on-chronic and chronic liver failure. Massive hepatocyte death is considered to be the core event in the development of li...
The principles of management for acute liver failure are: 1. Accurate diagnosis of the type--fulminant, late onset, acute on chronic--and establishment of likely aetiology. 2. Early detection and treatment of complications, particularly metabolic acidosis (early), renal failure, cerebral oedema and infections (late). 3. Optimization of conditions for regeneration by maintenance of normal metabo...
The nonsteroidal antiandrogenic drug flutamide [4'-nitro-3'-(trifluoromethyl)isobutyranilide] is a safe and generally well-tolerated drug used for the treatment of prostate cancer. We describe the case of a 74-year-old male who developed life-threatening acute liver failure during flutamide therapy. Other causes of acute liver failure were appropriately ruled out and there was no evidence of ac...
Acute liver failure (ALF), the manifestation of severe hepatocellular injury in the absence of pre-existing liver disease is a catastrophic and frequently fatal disorder. Though the injury is potentially reversible, the clinical course often culminates in multiple organ failure which is associated with a poor prognosis. The incidence is between 1 and 6 per million population per year [1]. Howev...
to delineate the incidence , epidemiology, etiology, and prognosis of acute renal failure (arf) and to compaed the findings with international data, we prospectively studied 2360 patients, admitted at shariati hospital during a four months period ending on jan, 6, 1996. one hundred and twenty-four (5.1%) patients meeting arf crieteria were encountered. the most common cause of arf was prerenal ...
