A case of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis after the primary Epstein-Barr virus infection.
Kitazawa Y, Saito F, Nomura S, Ishii K, Kadota E.
Clin Appl Thromb Hemost. 2007;13(3):323-8.
The patient received intensive care, including plasma exchange for hepatic failure, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for acute respiratory failure, and splenectomy for hemophagocytosis; however, the patient died of multiple organ failure, including fulminant hepatic failure.

Hemophagocytic syndrome presenting as acute hepatic failure in two infants: clinical overlap with neonatal hemochromatosis.
Parizhskaya M, Reyes J, Jaffe R.
Pediatr Dev Pathol. 1999;2(4):360-6.
Hepatic manifestations are common in hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and overt hepatic failure may occur, but initial presentation as fulminant hepatic failure is not well recognized.

Fulminant hepatic failure caused by ecarazine hydrochloride (a hydralazine derivative).
Tameda Y, Hamada M, Takase K, Nakano T, Kosaka Y.
Hepatology. 1996;23(3):465-70.
We examined the reasons why fulminant hepatic failure in these seven patients had not been previously attributed to ecarazine, and found that it could be explained by the following factors: (1) the time from the start of ecarazine therapy to the onset of hepatic failure was long; (2) in all cases, hepatic failure developed more than 10 days after the clinical recognition of hepatitis; and (3) characteristic signs of drug-induced hepatic failure such as a skin rash and positive lymphocytes stimulation test with the drug were absent in all cases.

Wilson's disease: varied hepatic presentations.
Gill HH, Shankaran K, Desai HG.
Indian J Gastroenterol. 1994;13(3):95-8.
Patients with Wilson's disease presented as acute viral hepatitis (n = 5), fulminant hepatic failure (n = 2), subacute hepatic failure (n = 2) and cryptogenic cirrhosis (n = 2).

[A case of fulminant hepatic failure secondary to congestive heart failure].
Kuramoto M, Yamane T, Ueno K, Kurasawa T, Matsumoto S, Kuribayashi N.
Kokyu To Junkan. 1991;39(6):607-11.
The patient died of fulminant hepatic failure on the 20th days after onset of the hepatic failure.

Aetiology of icteric hepatitis and fulminant hepatic failure in children and the possible predisposition to hepatic failure by sickle cell disease.

Markedly increased omega-oxidation of valproate in fulminant hepatic failure.
Kuhara T, Inoue Y, Matsumoto M, Shinka T, Matsumoto I, Kawahara N, Sakura N.
Epilepsia. 1990;31(2):214-7.
Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, we showed that the urinary metabolite profile of valproate (VPA) in a subject receiving VPA and phenobarbital (PB) who died of fulminant hepatic failure was quite different from those of reported patients with Reye's syndrome or fatal hepatic failure.

Primary and secondary malignant disease of the liver and fulminant hepatic failure.
Myszor MF, Record CO.
J Clin Gastroenterol. 1990;12(4):441-6.
The association and presentation of malignant disease of the liver with fulminant hepatic failure has been described sporadically, but the absence of a large series has meant that malignancy is rarely considered in the differential diagnosis of such hepatic failure.
