A 44-year-old male who developed liver failure four years after orthotopic liver transplant was managed using high-flux albumin haemofiltration as a bridge to transplant. The technique, which involves using conventional haemofiltration with a plasma component separator using a filter with a sieving coefficient of 20% for albumin, is described.
