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.
