Acute liver failure produces widespread physiologic derangements including encephalopathy, coagulopathy, peripheral vasodilation, a systemic inflammatory response, and multiorgan failure. Morbidity is significant, and mortality is 50%. The classification of liver failure and the various etiologies, including viral hepatitis, drug-induced, toxins, and autoimmunity are reviewed here. The multisystem effects of acute liver failure influence all aspects of perioperative care and adequate supportive care during this time is crucial to providing the best possible outcome for the patient. Specific treatment objectives and recommendations are discussed, and the anesthetic management with regard to drug choices, hemodynamic goals, and intraoperative monitoring is reviewed.
