Overview
Historically, the hepatorenal syndrome was first defined as acute renal failure that occurred in the setting of biliary surgery. The syndrome was soon associated with advanced liver disease. It was determined that kidneys transplanted from patients with hepatorenal syndrome were functional, leading to the hypothesis that hepatorenal syndrome was a systemic process as opposed to renal disease, which affects the renal function.
Historical Perspective
Historically, the hepatorenal syndrome was first defined as acute renal failure that occurred in the setting of biliary surgery. The syndrome was soon associated with advanced liver disease. It was determined that kidneys transplanted from patients with hepatorenal syndrome were functional, leading to the hypothesis that hepatorenal syndrome was a systemic process as opposed to renal disease, which affects the renal function.[1][2]
- In 1861, Frerichs noted an association among advanced liver disease, ascites, and oliguric renal failure in the absence of significant renal histologic changes.[3]
- In 1863, Flint noted relation between ascites and renal failure.
- In 1956, Hecker and Sherlock published article to explain the pathogensis of renal failure in presence of liver failure.[4]
- In 1965, 1965, Shear demonstrated that acute tubular necrosis (ATN) may also supervene.[5]
- In 1969, Koppel MH published article regarding normalization of kidney function after it is transplanted to an healthy liver functioning body.[6]
- In 1970, Epstein M experimentally showed that splanchnic and systemic vasodilation in combination of renal vasoconstriction is the pathogensis behind hepatorenal syndrome.[7]
- In 1972, Vesin P explained that the prognosis is very poor in patient with renal failure together with of liver failure and named it is “terminal functional renal failure”[8]
- In 1978, European symposium gathered to decide diagnostic criteria for hepatorenal syndrome.
- In 1980, in conclusion of European symposium Lancet published paper naming and diagnostic outlines of the condition as hepatorenal syndrome or hepatic nephropathy.
