We report two cases of ischemic hepatitis in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis. In both, hepatic ischemia was induced by hemorrhagic shock and severe sepsis. Despite control of the bleeding and restoration of normal hemodynamics, liver failure deteriorated to hepatic coma and death in both cases. Ischemic hepatitis occurred in 1.5% of 130 consecutive cases of cirrhosis admitted for hemorrhage on our medical intensive care unit. Although cirrhotic patients run an increased risk of ischemic hepatitis, our experience and our review of the literature indicate that this condition is rare in these patients.
