Background: Glyphosate containing herbicides are widely used the world over. They are marketed as nontoxic to humans, but numerous studies have showed that these glyphosate-based herbicides (GlySH) can cause multiorgan damage.1 Recent reports of animal studies on rats have raised a doubt of liver damage after long term exposure to GlySH. Case Presentation: a young male had chronic exposure to G...

primary hepatic lymphoma is a rare malignancy usually presenting with symptoms of fever, hepatomegaly, jaundice and weight loss. this picture mimics infectious and inflammatory disorders and thus delays the diagnosis. here, we present a 47-year old man with prolonged fever who underwent several investigations and, in the meantime, developed fulminant hepatic failure before the diagnosis could b...

A reproducible animal model of fulminant hepatic failure was developed by intraperitoneal administration of D-galactosamine hydrochloride to Sprague-Dawley rats. Biochemical and morphological hepatic injury and brain edema resembled human fulminant hepatic failure. This model would facilitate further studies of the pathogenesis of brain dysfunction and evaluation of treatment in fulminant hepat...

Mortality rates for fulminant hepatic failure range between 50% and 90%. Several independent factors influence survival: age, etiology, depth and duration of the encephalopathy, and prevention of complications. The main causes of fulminant hepatic failure are hepatotropic viruses, adverse drug effects, and toxins (Table 1). All major hepatotropic viruses can induce fulminant hepatic failure. We...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Clinical and laboratory predictors of recovery in children with fulminant hepatic failure are limited. Recently, hypophosphatemia has been reported as a laboratory indicator of recovering liver function in children with fulminant hepatic failure . We aimed to determine the incidence of hypophosphatemia and its association with clinical outcome in children in our center with fulm...

This report describes the effect of liver transplantation on transcerebral ammonia uptake in a case of fulminant hepatic failure. A young woman with fulminant hepatic failure and coma received monitoring of transcerebral ammonia uptake before and after orthotopic liver transplantation. Before liver transplantation, median transcerebral ammonia uptake was 8 µmol/L. After liver transplantation, a...

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...

The mortality rate of fulminant hepatic failure was high until liver transplantation was presented as a potential therapy. We encountered a patient with hyperacute fulminant hepatic failure due to hepatitis B virus infection. Living donor liver transplantation was planned but abandoned because her brain edema progressed too rapidly to complete the donor evaluation. The present case reveals the ...

Liver disease afflicts over 600 million people worldwide, 30 million of whom are Americans. Liver disease leads to the death of over 40,000 individuals in the United States every year. Liver failure can be generally separated into two major categories: fulminant hepatic failure, also referred to as acute liver failure, and chronic hepatic failure resulting from chronic end-stage liver disorders...
