Abstract EN
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is the most appalling complication of acute or chronic liver disease with 90% mortality rate.
Single pass albumin dialysis (SPAD) can be considered as a noble liver support technique in HRS.
Here, we present a case of a young healthy patient who developed hyperacute fulminant liver failure that progressed to HRS.
The patient was offered SPAD as a bridge to liver transplantation, however, it resulted in an excellent recovery.
