Acute-on-chronic liver failure （ACLF） is a high-mortality syndrome that develops during the acute deterioration of chronic liver disease and is characterized by multiple organ dysfunction driven by systemic inflammation. Due to gut microbiota dysbiosis， endotoxin translocation， and amplified inflammatory responses， alcohol-related liver disease-associated ACLF （ALD-ACLF） is more pronounced and is often accompanied by a high risk of secondary infection and extrahepatic organ involvement， thereby exhibiting distinct etiological and clinical characteristics. This article systematically reviews the advances in the definitional boundaries， pathophysiological mechanisms， dynamic early warning， and prognostic assessment of ALD-ACLF， elaborates on risk stratification and key issues in clinical management， and discusses the potential impact of the dual-hit phenotype of metabolic dysfunction and alcohol-related liver disease on risk stratification in ALD-ACLF. This article also highlights the need to further strengthen etiology-oriented early identification， dynamic stratification， control of predisposing factors， and earlier intervention， in order to provide a reference for the precise assessment and individualized intervention of these patients.

Objective:To perform trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy via a single incision in treatment of adrenal tumors,and to discuss its clinical outcome and safety.Methods:Single incision trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was used in treatment of three patients with adrenal tumors.The incision was made 3 cm below the costal margin of anterior axillary line; three Tocars were placed in the cut.The instruments used included single port access,CUSA,Hem-o-lok,etc..Results:The three operations were all successful,and there were no conversion to open procedure or a need for extra Ttrocars.The operating time periods were 75,116,and 135 min,with a mean of (108.7?30.7)min.The perioperative blood losses were 10,20,and 30 ml,with a mean of (20?10)ml.The gastric canal and ureteral catheter were withdrew one day after operation,and the drainage tube was withdrew 3 d after operation.The mean postoperative hospital stay was 4 d.Conclusion:Single incision trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy has the advantage of little trauma,less blood loss,satisfactory safety,and prompt postoperative recovery,but is difficult to manage.
