Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether and how experience accumulation and technical refinements simultaneously implemented in auxiliary orthotopic liver transplantation (AOLT) may impact on outcomes. BACKGROUND AOLT for acute liver failure (ALF) provides the unique chance of complete immunosuppression withdrawal after adequate native liver remnant regeneration but is a technically demanding procedure. Our department is a reference center for ALF and an early adopter of AOLT. METHODS This is a single-center retrospective before/after study of a prospectively maintained cohort of 48 patients with ALF who underwent AOLT between 1993 and 2019. In 2012, technical refinements were implemented to improve outcomes: (i) favoring the volume of the graft rather than that of the native liver, (ii) direct anastomosis of graft hepatic artery with recipient right hepatic artery instead of the use of large size vessels, (iii) end-to-side hepaticocholedocostomy instead of bilioenteric anastomosis. Early experience (1993-2011) group (n=26) and recent experience (2012-2019) group (n=22) were compared. Primary endpoint was 90-day severe morbidity rate (Clavien-Dindo≥IIIa) and secondary endpoints were overall patient survival and complete immunosuppression withdrawal rates. RESULTS Compared with the earlier experience group, the recent experience group was associated with a lower severe complication rate (27% vs 65%, P <0.001), as well as less biliary (18% vs 54%, P =0.017) and arterial (0% vs 15%, P =0.115) complications. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year patient survival was significantly improved (91%, 91%, 91% vs 76%, 61%, 60%, P =0.045). The rate of complete immunosuppression withdrawal increased to 94% vs 70%, ( P =0.091) with no need of long-term graft explant. CONCLUSION These technical refinements favoring the liver graft and reducing morbidity may promote AOLT implementation among LT centers.

Abstract
Acute liver failure (ALF) is an infrequent, unpredictable, potentially fatal complication of acute liver injury (ALI) consequent to varied etiologies. Etiologies of ALF as reported in the literature have regional differences, which affects the clinical presentation and natural course. In this part of the consensus article designed to reflect the clinical practices in India, disease burden, epidemiology, clinical presentation, monitoring, and prognostication have been discussed. In India, viral hepatitis is the most frequent cause of ALF, with drug-induced hepatitis due to antituberculosis drugs being the second most frequent cause. The clinical presentation of ALF is characterized by jaundice, coagulopathy, and encephalopathy. It is important to differentiate ALF from other causes of liver failure, including acute on chronic liver failure, subacute liver failure, as well as certain tropical infections which can mimic this presentation. The disease often has a fulminant clinical course with high short-term mortality. Death is usually attributable to cerebral complications, infections, and resultant multiorgan failure. Timely liver transplantation (LT) can change the outcome, and hence, it is vital to provide intensive care to patients until LT can be arranged. It is equally important to assess prognosis to select patients who are suitable for LT. Several prognostic scores have been proposed, and their comparisons show that indigenously developed dynamic scores have an edge over scores described from the Western world. Management of ALF will be described in part 2 of this document.
