Hepatorenal syndrome, the extreme manifestation of renal impairment in patients with cirrhosis, is characterized by reduction in renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. Hepatorenal syndrome is diagnosed when kidney function is reduced but evidence of intrinsic kidney disease is absent. Unlike other causes of kidney injury, hepatorenal syndrome results from functional changes in the renal circulation and is potentially reversible. An analysis of literature reviews, clinical studies, experimental research, clinical recommendations from PubMed / Medline and ELIBRARY databases was carried out for 7 keywords according to the review topic.
