Fulminant hepatitis is an uncommon complication of herpes simplex virus infection. Patients at risk, in particular pregnant women and immunosuppressed patients presenting with fulminant liver failure, receiving delayed acyclovir intervention may lose significant liver parenchyma prompting the need for liver transplantation. The diagnosis is often not straight forward due to the lack of specific...
This report highlights an interesting case of an osteolytic lesion (actinomycosis) after fulminant liver failure induced by autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). When treating patients with fulminant liver failure due to AIH using immunosuppressive drugs, such as steroids, the possibility of such rare occurrences should be kept in mind.
Fulminant hepatic failure is characterized by the presence of hepatic encephalopathy in the setting of acute liver injury that occurs in a noncirrhotic organ. Brain edema is the ultimate complication of advanced hepatic encephalopathy as it often leads to cerebral herniation and death. Thus, the presence of fulminant hepatic failure indicates the need for urgent liver transplantation to prevent...
Fulminant hepatic failure of unknown origin is the most common cause of fulminant hepatitis with high incidence of aplastic anaemia. Furthermore, the association of liver failure and aplastic anaemia has an increased mortality rate. In this report we describe a 16-month-old boy who presented with aplastic anaemia preceding a non-A, non-B, non-C fulminant liver failure. He developed severe graft...
Fulminant hepatic failure is a fatal complication of iron intoxication. Currently, there no well-established treatment. A 23-year-old Japanese woman, with past medical history deficiency anemia, presented fulminant caused by Multiple organ progressed despite plasma exchanges and deferoxamine therapy, she subsequently developed acute respiratory distress syndrome. Even though Venous-Venous Extra...
OBJECTIVE The HepatAssist liver support system is an extracorporeal porcine hepatocyte-based bioartificial liver (BAL). The safety and efficacy of the BAL were evaluated in a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter trial in patients with severe acute liver failure. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA In experimental animals with acute liver failure, we demonstrated beneficial effects of the BAL....
Fulminant hepatitis is a rare complication of herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2). Another rare cause of fulminant hepatitis in pregnant women is acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP). Here we present a female with fulminant hepatitis after a cesarean section whose infant clinically decompensated in the early neonatal period. Mother and child were diagnosed with fulminant hepatic failure fro...
Cerebral injury may persist and brain death may occur following an emergency liver transplantation (LT) for fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) even if the graft functions well. We herein present two patients developing brain death following emergency LT for FHF. How to cite this article Akoglu M, Sürmelioglu A, Ozer I, Ercan M, Ulas M, Akdogan M, Bostanci EB. Brain Death after Liver Transplantat...
