Hepatorenal syndrome

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2018
Hepatorenal syndrome is a form of acute kidney injury that occurs in chronic liver diseaseand acute fulminant liver failure. This syndrome features a rapid progressive decline in renalfunction in the absence of other obvious causes of renal dysfunction ...

Hepatorenal Syndrome

Critical Care Clinics, 2021
Development of acute kidney injury in patients with chronic liver disease is common and portends a poor prognosis. Diagnosis remains challenging, as traditional markers, such as serum creatinine, are not reliable. Recent development of novel biomarkers may assist with this.

Hepatorenal Syndrome

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2011
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a functional renal failure that often occurs in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Two different types of HRS have been described. Type 1 HRS develops as a consequence of a severe reduction of effective circulating volume due to both an extreme splanchnic arterial vasodilatation and a reduction of cardiac output.

HEPATORENAL SYNDROME

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2000
Hepatorenal syndrome is a functional renal failure that occurs in cirrhotic patients with advanced liver disease and ascites. The diagnostic criteria and clinical types of this syndrome have recently been revised. Hepatorenal syndrome is caused by marked hypoperfusion of the kidney as the result of renal vasoconstriction, which is thought to be the ...

Hepatorenal Syndrome

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2006
Among the many causes of renal failure in patients who have advanced liver disease, functional renal failure occurring in the absence of parenchymal kidney disease, better known as hepatorenal syndrome (HRS), is the most frequent cause of renal dysfunction in patients who have cirrhosis.

The hepatorenal syndrome

Pediatric Nephrology, 1996
Hepatorenal syndrome may occur in any form of severe liver disease. It appears less common in children than adults, but still carries a poor prognosis. There are several factors involved in its aetiology, including a decreased renal perfusion pressure, activation of the renal sympathetic nervous system and increased synthesis of several vasoactive ...

Hepatorenal Syndrome

Seminars in Liver Disease, 1997
Hepatorenal syndrome is a common complication in patients with advanced cirrhosis and ascites characterized not only by renal failure but also by marked alterations in systemic hemodynamics and vasoactive systems. Renal failure is due to a marked hypoperfusion of the kidney secondary to renal vasoconstriction.

The Hepatorenal Syndrome

Medical Clinics of North America, 1990
HRS occurs frequently in patients with advanced cirrhosis of the liver and fulminant hepatitis. The pathogenesis of HRS is not clearly understood; reduced effective plasma volume and intense renal cortical vasoconstriction seem to have important roles.
