Acute liver failure precipitated by acute Budd‐Chiari syndrome and complete portal vein thrombosis

Abstract Acute Budd‐Chiari syndrome and complete portal vein thrombosis are important features of myeloproliferative neoplasm that may occur simultaneously, resulting in acute liver failure. Liver transplantation could be effective even in such a catastrophic condition without post‐transplant complications.
