Abstract
We originally developed a multi-capillary polyurethane foam packed-bed module as a hybrid-artificial liver support system (HALSS) and have applied for the permission of the clinical application to our institutional ethical committee. We summarized here the history, recent obstacles in clinical applications, and future prospects of HALSS, including our own.
