Effect of LSD on Renal Function in Cirrhosis Patients With Portal Hypertension Bleeding (2-Year Follow-Up)
Starting soon
Conditions studied: Cirrhosis, Liver, Splenectomy; Status, Renal Function Abnormal, Portal Hypertension
In brief
Patients with liver cirrhosis often have impaired or at-risk kidney function due to the close link between liver and kidney (hepatorenal syndrome). Laparoscopic Splenectomy and Azygoportal Disconnection (LSD) is commonly used to treat Cirrhosis with Portal Hypertension Bleeding in these patients, but its impact on kidney function over 2 years is unclear. This study will follow patients undergoing laparoscopic splenectomy to measure changes in kidney function before and after surgery, identify risk factors for kidney damage and whether LSD can improve kidney function in the long term, and help improve care to protect kidney function in cirrhotic patients .
