Overview
The most common cause of hepatic encephalopathy is hepatic cirrhosis, drugs/toxins and acute fulminant hepatitis. Less common causes of hepatic encephalopathy include Wilson's disease, alpha-1-antitripsin deficiency, autoimmune hepatitis, Budd-chiari syndrome, cancer or metastasis to liver), HELLP syndrome(hemolysis, elevated liver function tests, and low platelets) and sepsis.
Causes
Common causes
Common causes of hepatic encephalopathy include:[1]
- Hepatic cirrhosis
- Drugs and toxins (acetaminophen[2], amoxicilin/clavulanate[3], halothane[4], iron[5], isoniazid[6] ,carbon tetrachloride[7], Wild mushroom Amanita phalloides[8])
- Acute fulminant viral hepatitis[9]
Less common causes
Less common causes of hepatic encephalopathy include:
- Wilson’s disease[10]
- Alpha-1-antitripsin deficiency[11]
- Autoimmune hepatitis[12]
- Budd-chiari syndrome[13]
- Cancer (primary hepatic cancer or metastasis to liver)[14]
- HELLP syndrome (hemolysis, elevated liver function tests, and low platelets)[15]
- Sepsis[16]
- Right heart failure[17]
