Abstract:

Acute liver failure (ALF) secondary to drug induced liver injury (DILI) is a rare and severe consequence of hepatocyte injury, which leads to a rapid-onset elevation of aminotransferases, hepatic encephalopathy, coagulopathy and so on. The main causes of DILI related-ALF can be classified to acetaminophen(APAP)-related ALF (mainly for acetaminophen) and idiosyncratic DILI (herbal and dietary supplements and so on). APAP-related ALF presents with a hyperacute liver injury and more than 75% of patients can survive without liver transplantation, while idiosyncratic DILI-related ALF develops more slowly, approximately 60% of patients require liver transplantation. Establishment of a prediction model based on the causes and clinical parameters, will help to recognize the nature history of DILI-related ALF and work out timely treatment strategies focusing on liver transplantation, finally to improve the overall survival.

Key words: Drug induced liver injury, Acute liver failure, Liver Transplantation, Prognosis, Predictor
