Acute liver failure of unknown origin: A case report
Author(s): Pratigya Paudel and Santosh Banstola
Abstract: Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare but life-threatening condition characterized by rapid deterioration of liver function in a previously healthy individual. It poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, especially when the etiology remains unclear despite extensive workup. We present the case of a 54-year-old male who developed ALF following gastrointestinal symptoms, with negative viral and tropical serologies, and responded partially to supportive therapy including N-acetylcysteine and blood products.
