Abstract

Of 43 children with fulminant hepatic failure, 24 had an exchange transfusion, and 7 survived (29%). The remaining 19 received routine therapy and 1 survived (5%). Investigations are compared with those of children with infective hepatitis admitted during the same period and who did not suffer fulminant hepatic failure.
