Abstract:

The authors described four cases of acute liver insufficiency, treated by means of extracorporeal perfusion of pig liver. Three patients developed acute liver insufficiency in the course of acute viral hepatitis, and one as the sequel of liver cirrhosis. In total, eleven perfusions were carried out, each lasting for 3—6 hours. Alterations in body fluids composition as well as disorders of blood clotting arosen during the perfusion, are described in detail. Two patients were cured.
