Hepatopulmonary syndrome is part of the spectrum of pulmonary vascular disorders seen in advanced liver disease. The pathophysiology of these entities likely is dependent on the degree of pulmonary vasoconstriction or vasodilation that occurs. Our understanding of hepatopulmonary syndrome has helped further our knowledge of the interaction of the liver and the lung. Advances in the management of this disorder, especially liver transplantation, finally have allowed us to offer some hope to patients with this disease.
肝肺综合征是晚期肝病中所见肺血管疾病谱的一部分。这些病症的病理生理学可能取决于所发生的肺血管收缩或扩张程度。我们对肝肺综合征的认识有助于进一步了解肝脏与肺之间的相互作用。这种疾病管理方面的进展，尤其是肝移植，最终使我们能够为患有这种疾病的患者带来一些希望。
