Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis. Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a type of AKI known as HRS-AKI. It is a severe complication of cirrhosis with high morbidity and mortality. While certain vasoconstrictor medications have been shown to improve HRS-AKI, no clear transplant-free survival benefit has been reported with medical therapies. Patients with HRS-AKI should be considered for urgent liver transplantation evaluation. In this review, we discuss the most recent updates on the definition, diagnosis, and management of AKI in cirrhosis, with special a emphasis on HRS.
急性肾损伤(AKI)在肝硬化住院患者中很常见。肝肾综合征(HRS)是一种被称为HRS-AKI的AKI类型。它是肝硬化的一种严重并发症,发病率和死亡率都很高。虽然某些血管收缩剂药物已被证明可改善HRS-AKI,但医学治疗并未报告有明确的无移植生存获益。HRS-AKI患者应考虑进行紧急肝移植评估。在本综述中,我们讨论了肝硬化中AKI的定义、诊断和管理的最新进展,特别强调了HRS。
