文摘Introduction Acute liver failure(ALF)is an uncommon disease in pediatric cases.Etiology includes infections,autoimmune diseases,inborn errors of metabolism,and intoxications.Metabolic disorders account for 25%of resolved cases.However,the etiology remains unknown in half of pediatric ALF[1].The recognition of molecular etiopathogenesis has been facilitated after the common use of next-generation sequencing techniques.Recently,biallelic variants in neuroblastoma-amplified sequence(NBAS),Leucyl-tRNA synthetase 1(LARS1),and RAD50-interacting protein(RINT1)were identified in recurrent ALF(RALF)[2–4].
