Overview

Historical Perspective

  • The hepatic and mental disturbance association dates back to Hippocrates ( about 460 – 375 B.C.).[1][2].
  • In the sixteenth century, Ballonius was the first to describe hepatic coma.
  • In 1660, Franciscus Rubeus and in 1725, Jacobus Vercellonius described liver failure further.
  • Wickham Legg wrote a comprehensive review on acute liver atrophy in his book on liver diseases.
  • In 1860, Frerichs described the terminal mental changes in patients with cirrhosis and yellow atrophy of the liver.
  • The concept of inflammatory process was first described by Bright.[1]
  • In 1970, Trey and Davidson introduced the term fulminant hepatic failure.
  • Horaczek's monograph contained several entities which he called bilious dyscrasia's. The more sever forms corresponds closely with hepatic coma and anatomically with acute yellow atrophy.
  • Later it was suggested that the term fulminant should be confined to patients who develop jaundice to encephalopathy within 2 weeks. Terms subfulminant hepatic failure and late onset hepatic failure were coined for onset between 2 weeks to 3 months and for 8 weeks to 24 weeks respectively[3][4].
  • The term of acute liver failure was proposed by Kings college group. The best prognosis is in the hyperacute group[5].
