With recent advances in surgical and anaesthetic management, clinical medicine has responded to societal expectations and the number of operations in patients with a high-risk of perioperative liver failure has increased over the last decades. This review will outline important pathophysiological alterations common in patients with pre-existing liver impairment and thus highlight the anaesthetic challenge to minimise perioperative liver insults. It will focus on the intraoperative balancing act to reduce blood loss while maintaining adequate liver perfusion, the various anaesthetic agents used and their specific effects on hepatic function, perfusion and toxicity. Furthermore, it will discuss advances in pharmacological and ischaemic preconditioning and summarise the results of recent clinical trials.
