Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a relatively common condition in patients with advanced liver disease and which is associated with increased mortality. It mainly affects patients with decompensated cirrhosis, particularly those with advanced portal hypertension and ascites. The dual organ involvement may have different forms. The contributing pathogenetic mechanisms are common and predict a dismal prognosis. Early diagnosis and interventions involving specialists (in particular, hepatologists and nephrologists) are essential to improve outcomes.
Keywords: acute kidney injury, hepatorenal syndrome, liver cirrhosis, therapy.
