Analysis of infectious complications and timing for emergency liver transplantation in autoimmune acute liver failure. (21st February 2016) - Fujiwara, Keiichi
Abstract : Highlight Fujiwara and colleagues reveal that the critical point for switching to liver transplantation without infectious complications in autoimmune acute liver failure is two weeks after the start of corticosteroid treatment. It is crucial to evaluate corticosteroid efficacy and, if no improvement is seen, to perform liver transplantation by that time.
