[Fulminant liver failure as a sequelae of acute dystrophy of the right hepatic lobe].
- I. interní klinika FN, Olomouc.
A 38-year-old female patient developed signs of fulminant hepatic failure, caused by extensive, spontaneous, devastating ischaemia of the right liver lobe. The patient survived the acute attack. During the subsequent eight years hypertrophy of the intact left liver lobe occurred which eventually completely replaced the loss of the dominant right lobe.
