Pathophysiology Wide variety of agents including ammonia free fatty acids mercaptans phenols bile acids and aromatic amino acids combine to produce hepatic encephalopathy by several different mechanisms direct cellular effect indirect cause metabolic derangement conversion to false neurotransmitters alteration of permeability of BBB allows entry of toxic metabolites into the brain and thus contributes to cerebral oedema - major cause of death present in 32 of patients at PM. Ammonia currently thought to be the main pathophysiological agent Other possible aetiological mechanisms include the presence of benzodiazepine .
