Live donor liver transplantation for pediatric acute liver failure: challenges and outcomes

Hepatology International, 2023
This study aimed at studying the challenges and outcomes of live-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for pediatric acute liver failure (PALF).A total of 315 patients with PALF were treated over a period of 11 years. 42 underwent LT (41 LDLT and one DDLT), constituting 38% (41/110) of all pediatric transplants during this duration.

Pediatric acute liver failure: variations in referral timing are associated with disease subtypes

European Journal of Pediatrics, 2014
In pediatric acute liver failure (PALF), rapid referral to a transplant center (TC) is advocated. Clinical variability of PALF may influence referral timing. We aimed to analyze early or late timing of referral in relation to clinical characteristics and outcome in PALF.

Human Parechovirus as a Cause of Isolated Pediatric Acute Liver Failure

Pediatrics, 2016
Among infants, almost half of acute liver failure cases are classified as indeterminate, whereas only a small number of cases show a documented viral infection. We present the first reported case of isolated acute hepatic failure in an infant in the setting of a human parechovirus (HPeV) infection.

Changing Etiologies and Prognostic Factors in Pediatric Acute Liver Failure

Liver Transplantation, 2019
After the implementation of universal hepatitis A virus vaccination in Argentina, the outcome of pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) remains unknown. We aimed to identify variables associated with the risk of liver transplantation (LT) or death and to determine the causes and short‐term outcomes of PALF in Argentina.

Acute liver failure after sevoflurane anesthesia in a pediatric patient

Revista Española de Anestesiología y Reanimación (English Edition), 2019
Sevoflurane is a volatile anesthetic characterized by low toxicity and is the most used in pediatric age. Unlike other halogenated anesthetic, sevoflurane is not metabolized to reactive intermediates that lead to the formation of hepatotoxic proteins. However, a few cases of hepatotoxicity have been associated with its use.
