Liver cirrhosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, with complications such as HE resulting in recurrent emergency hospitalizations, irreversible brain injury, and a poor prognosis.2 - 5 There is some evidence that HE patients have a reduced relative abundance of certain beneficial gut
microbiota (e.g. Lachnospiraceae and Ruminococcaceae) and an enrichment of potentially pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae ¬ - a microbial profile that has been linked to cognitive impairment and systemic inflammation in cirrhotic patients with HE.1 Faecal
microbiota transplants have been
used successfully to correct dysbiotic conditions such as recurrent Clostridium difficile and ulcerative colitis,6 - 8 and a preliminary report suggested that FMT may be promising in the management of HE.9
