Key Words Acute liver failure; Melanoma; Budd-Chiari syndrome; Hepatic infiltration; Case report
Core Tip Acute liver failure due to diffuse hepatic infiltration by metastatic melanoma is an exceptionally rare and often misdiagnosed entity, especially in patients without a known history of malignancy. This case highlights the importance of considering infiltrative malignancy in unexplained acute liver failure, even when initial imaging suggests vascular etiologies such as Budd-Chiari syndrome. Liver biopsy remains essential for accurate diagnosis and may alter transplant eligibility. Early recognition and histopathologic confirmation are critical for guiding appropriate clinical decisions in this rapidly fatal presentation.
