Overview
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) does not have specific clinical findings.However patient has reflect the underlying advanced liver disease, renal impairment, and circulatory abnormalities present.
Physical Examination

Constitutional disturbances:
Skin
Abdomen
- Abdominal distension
- Shifting dullness:
- Dull sound in the belly area when tapped with the tips of the fingers - indicates presence of fluid
- Hepatomegaly
- Stigmata of portal hypertension (gastroesophageal varices, caput medusa, hepatic encephalopathy)
- Gynaecomastia
- Spider naevi
Genitals
- Small testicles
- Oliguria
Extremities
Neurologic
- Abnormal reflexes
- Confusion on neurologic testing
Cariovascular:
- Hyperdynamic circulation
- Reduced systemic vascular resistance
- Low mean arterial pressure
