PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. Liver failure Hepatic failure is when the liver loses the ability to regenerate or repair so that decompensation occurs. It is marked by encephalopathy, haemorrhagic diathesis, ascites and jaundice Fulminant hepatic failure is defined as when the failure occurs within 8 weeks of the onset of the underlying illness. Late onset hepatic failure, also called subacute fulminant hepatic failure, is when there has been a gap of 8 to 26 weeks. The difference may not be immediately obvious as the underlying disease may have been present for a long time but undiagnosed. If the latent period is over 6 months it is chronic decompensated hepatic failure. Epidemiology: There is no sex difference in incidence. In the UK over 600 liver transplants a year are performed but that figure is said to be low compared with the rest of Europe and 60 people a year die waiting. Risk factors: There are many causes of hepatic failure and the following represent just a few.

Articles by Mulakkan, T Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science, Vol 20, Issue 2, 91-97 Articles The pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy PM Farmer and T Mulakkan Hepatic encephalopathy remains a complex clinicopathological problem. Much is known about the biochemical derangements in liver, blood, and brain. The precise pathogenetic mechanism for central nervous system dysfunction remains to be determined. Ammonia continues to be considered as an important neurotoxin and may act synergistically with other toxic substances. Disturbances of amino acid balance may result in a disproportion of inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters in the brain. Alternatively, some amino acids may act as false neurotransmitters. Recent clinical and laboratory data have advanced the hypothesis that gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) absorbed from the gut may enter the brain and exert a profound inhibitory effect. Drugs which antagonize the GABA-benzodiazepate receptor may offer symptomatic improvements in hepatic encephalopathy. HOME HELP FEEDBACK SUBSCRIPTIONS ... TABLE OF CONTENTS

Kayacetin E, Kisakol G, Kaya A. Low serum total thyroxine and free triiodothyronine in patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to non-alcoholic cirrhosis. Original article Peer reviewed article Principles: We evaluated serum thyroid hormone levels in non-alcoholic cirrhotic patients with and without hepatic encephalopathy. Methods: Results: Conclusions: These results suggest that patients with hepatic encephalopathy secondary to decompensated non-alcoholic cirrhosis are typified by low FT3 and low total T4, as well as by aprolonged prothrombin time. Low FT3 does not obviously put patients at risk for hepatic encephalopathy, and thyroid parameters are secondary and late events.

Ask the Experts about Hepatitis and HIV Coinfection ammonia Maybe Hepatic Encephalopathy? Jul 25, 2004 Response from Dr. McGovern Your case is very complicated and it is difficult for me to advise you fully. I would not worry about what questions you need to ask the physician. I would think about and write down the symptoms you have been having in a chronological form and so when you go to the doctor's office, you will remember all the important details so that your physician can have a good medical history. I would also bring any medical records you may have from other places. Your physician will then perform a thorough physical examination and will obtain the appropriate laboratories to assess your condition. With all this information your physician will be able to help you with your liver disease.
