Overview

The cause of Hepatorenal syndrome [HS] is deteriorating function of liver.

Causes

The cause of Hepatorenal syndrome [HS] is deteriorating function of liver. It happens in following context:[1]

  • Liver function goes down which causes portal hypertension
  • Portal hypertension causes arterial vasodilatation in the splanchnic circulation
  • Arterial vasodilatation in the splanchnic circulation is due to Nitirc oxide
  • Arterial vasodilatation in the splanchnic circulation causes decreased blood flow to renal tissue
  • Renal tissue is prone to hypo-oxymeia
