Hepatorenal Syndrome

Southern Medical Journal, 2010
Acute kidney injury (AKI) secondary to hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is an ominous complication of end-stage liver disease (ESLD).

The Hepatorenal Syndrome

Medical Clinics of North America, 2008
The onset of renal failure in a patient with cirrhosis or acute liver failure is alarming because it raises the possibility of the hepatorenal syndrome (HRS).
