ABSTRACT
A review and discussion of the current literature on liver transplantation for acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) was performed. The ACLF represents an acute deterioration of liver function with pre-existing liver disease and is associated with increasing multiorgan failure, depending on the stage. The 28-day mortality ranges to well over 70% in stage 3 and requires rapid intensive medical treatment involving an interdisciplinary team experienced in transplantation medicine. Under optimized conditions, liver transplantation provides long-term survival rates comparable to other indications. Achieving this requires a differentiated donor selection, choosing the appropriate time for transplantation in the context of a dynamic disease course and the use of appropriate surgical techniques.
