This study evaluated the usefulness of asialoglycoprotein receptor scintigraphy with 99mTc-galactosyl human serum albumin (99mTc-GSA scintigraphy) as an early predictor for prognosis of acute liver failure. Forty-eight patients with acute liver failure and without a past history of chronic liver disease were enrolled. Patients were divided into survival and non-survival groups by 28-day mortality. 99mTc-GSA scintigraphy to detect uptake ratio of the heart at 15 minutes to that at three minutes (HH15) and uptake ratio of the liver at 15 minutes to the liver plus the heart at 15 minutes (LHL15), and measurements of serum total bilirubin, hepatocyte growth factor and prothrombin time were performed immediately after the diagnosis of acute liver failure. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves were used to compare the prognostic ability of total bilirubin, hepatocyte growth factor, prothrombin time, HH15 ratio, LHL15 ratio and the model for end-stage liver disease score. Clinical characteristics of patients in the survival group (n=20) and in the non-survival group (n=28) were not significantly different. HH15 and LHL15 uptake ratios in the survival group were 0.670 and 0.875, and they were significantly lower and higher than those in the non-survival group, respectively. All patients with LHL15 &lt;0.760 died, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for LHL15 were significantly larger than the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of serum variables and model for end-stage liver disease score. In summary, in patients with acute liver failure without chronic liver disease, HH15 and LHL15 of 99mTc-GSA scintigraphy are more useful variables in predicting prognosis than serum variables and model for end-stage liver disease score.
