Best Answer

A working artificial liver hasn't been invented yet. They are currently working on "re-growing" a liver from stem cells. The reason that an artificial liver is so difficult, is because the liver is essentially a miniature chemical lab in the body. Unlike the heart (which just pumps blood) or the kidney (which filters blood), a liver is much more complex.
