Acute Liver Failure Unit

Medical Management & Liver Transplant


Acute Liver Failure is a life threatening emergency which require ICU management.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a catastrophic illness in which a person with normal liver goes into liver failure within a short span of 2-4 weeks.

It is usually due to acute hepatitis (Hepatitis B, E or A virus).

Contrary to popular belief, more than half of the patients with ALF can be saved without transplant if managed in a well-equipped unit. The primary goal in management of ALF is prevention of infection.

Patients who are less likely to improve on medical management require a Liver Transplant. These patients, if identified early can be saved with a timely liver transplant.
