We describe a patient with paracetamol induced acute liver failure (ALF) who fulfilled criteria for poor prognosis and was waiting for a liver to become available for transplantation. Because of severe uncontrolled intracranial hypertension she underwent a hepatectomy that resulted in stabilization of her systemic and cerebral hemodynamics. She remained anhepatic for 14 h and was successfully bridged to liver transplantation. The removal of the liver was associated with a sharp and sustained reduction in the circulating pro-inflammatory cytokine concentration suggesting that liver derived pro-inflammatory cytokines may be important in the pathogenesis of intracranial hypertension in patients with ALF.
