  • Title: Fulminant hepatic failure and hepatic encephalopathy.
    Author: Rogers EL, Rogers MC.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 1980 Aug; 27(3):701-13. PubMed ID: 7413297.
    Abstract:
    Fulminant hepatic failure implies either acute massive destruction of liver tissue or another process that causes rapid deterioration in function of a previously normal liver. The diagnosis in children needs to be differentiated from hepatic failure that occurs as a complication of underlying congenital, anatomical, and metabolic abnormalities.
