Fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) usually has a fatal prognosis without liver transplantation. We describe the case of a woman who developed FHF, and was evaluated as a candidate for liver transplantation, but who was cured without transplantation through intensive medical care that included glucagon-insulin therapy, methylprednisolone pulse therapy, interferon beta and lamivudine administration, cyclosporine administration, and high-volume hemodiafiltration and plasma exchange. In a patient with FHF who is a candidate for liver transplantation but for whom the transplantation cannot be performed for some reason, intensive medical therapy, including regeneration-promoting therapy, immunosuppressive therapy, antiviral therapy, and vigorous hepatic support, should be carried out.
