Abstract
The main features of liver failure are extensive necrosis of hepatocytes,rapid disease progression,and poor prognosis,and at present,there are no effective drugs and methods for the treatment of liver failure.This article summarizes four treatment methods for liver failure,i.e.,medical treatment,cell transplantation,liver transplantation,and artificial liver support therapy,and elaborates on the existing treatment methods.The current medical treatment regimen should be optimized;cell transplantation has not been used in clinical practice;liver transplantation is the most effective method,but it is limited by donor liver shortage and high costs;artificial liver can effectively remove toxic substances in human body.Therefore,this article puts forward artificial liver as a transition for liver transplantation;artificial liver can buy time for liver regeneration or liver transplantation and prolong patients' survival time and thus has a promising future.The new treatment modality of bioartificial liver combined with liver transplantation may bring good news to patients with liver failure.关键词
