Introduction
A bioartificial liver device (BAL) is an artificial extracorporeal supportive device for individuals suffering from liver failure.
The purpose of BAL is to serve as a supportive device untill transplantation or regeneration of liver.
As the device contains both biological and manufactured components, it is called a
"bio-artificial liver."
