Management of ACLF is mainly supportive. The poor outcomes lead physicians to consider liver transplantation as an option, even if controversial. In sicker recipients, LT results in immediate survival, but poor medium-term survival rates in some studies. The scarcity of deceased donors obliges to maximize LT success. Alternative strategies, as living-donor LT, should be explored. LDLT has impressive results in Eastern centers, but it is restrained in Western countries, due to potential life-threatening complications in the donor.

Survival

1 year
patients listed for liver transplantation with ACLF-2 or 3 at the time of listing or developing ACLF 2-3 while on the waiting list (n=2,000)
patients listed for liver transplantation with decompensated cirrhosis without ACLF-2 or 3 and poor liver function (MELD \> 20) at the time of listing (n=500)
patients having ACLF-2 or 3, are assessed for inclusion in the waiting list, but are finally not listed for liver transplantation (n=500)
The cohorts will be followed for one year after LT transplantation except for group 3 (1-year follow-up after inclusion)
