Although renal dysfunction is a common complication of acute liver failure (ALF) with significant prognostic implications, the pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. The current hypothesis suggests that the renal dysfunction may mirror the hepatorenal syndrome of cirrhosis. However, ALF has distinct clinical characteristics and the circulatory derangement may be more comparable with sepsis.
