The most common cause of hepatic encephalopathy is hepatic cirrhosis, drug and toxins and acute fulminant hepatitis. Less common causes of hepatic encephalopathy include Wilson's disease, porphyria, alppha-1-antitripsin deficiency, autoimmune hepatitis, Budd-chiari syndrome, cancer(primary hepatic cancer or metastasis to liver), HELLP syndrome(hemolysis, elevated liver function tests, and low platelets) and sepsis.
