On-line hemodiafiltration (OLHDF) is one of the treatment options in the management of acute liver failure (ALF) in Japan. It is essential to avoid infection in the management of ALF. In fact, infection is one of the prognostic factors in ALF. In this report, we present a middle-aged Japanese man with ALF associated with benzbromarone use. He was successfully managed without infection until liver transplantation by creating an arteriovenous fistula for OLHDF. Utilizing an arteriovenous fistula for OLHDF, rather than inserting a vascular access catheter, is a beneficial option to avoid infectious diseases in the management of ALF.

Acute Hepatitis B

Case report: We present a young female of fourteen years who was admitted to the hospital with short duration of Icterus, malaise, vomiting and diagnosed to be having acute hepatitis B. She went into acute liver failure as evidenced by development of hepatic encephalopathy and coagulopathy. She was managed on lines of hepatic encephalopathy along with oral antiviral treatment. She recovered successfully and was discharged after two weeks in heamodynamically stable condition. After a gap of six months, she became Hepatitis B surface (HbsAg) & hepatitis B e-antigen (HbeAg) negative and Hepatitis B Virus DNA (HBV DNA) was undetectable with normal liver function tests. She is on regular follow up for last one year and is absolutely normal. Conclusion: Acute hepatitis B can go into acute liver failure in 1% of cases, treatment for which includes liver transplantation and oral antiviral treatment which is especially helpful in cases who cannot afford liver transplantation, as was in our case.
