Abstract:
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a common complication of severe liver disease, with severe conditions and poor prognosis, and causes a great burden to both patients’ family and society. HRS has a complex pathogenesis, and Western medicine treatment has a limited therapeutic effect; therefore, integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy is a feasible treatment method with a good clinical effect. This article reviews the advances in the diagnosis and treatment of HRS in both modern and traditional medicine, so as to overcome this challenge as early as possible.
