Cardiac Syndromes in Liver Disease: A Clinical Conundrum.
Journal of Clinical and Translational Hepatology 2023 August 29
Understanding the interaction between the heart and liver is pivotal for managing patients in whom both organs are affected. Studies have shown that cardio-hepatic interactions are bidirectional and that their identification, assessment, and treatment remain challenging. Congestive hepatopathy is a condition that develops in the setting of long-standing systemic venous congestion. If left untreated, congestive hepatopathy may lead to hepatic fibrosis. Acute cardiogenic liver injury develops as a combination of venous stasis and sudden arterial hypoperfusion due to cardiac, circulatory, or pulmonary failure. The treatment of both conditions should be directed toward optimizing the cardiac substrate. Hyperdynamic syndrome may develop in patients with advanced liver disease and lead to multiorgan failure. Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy or abnormalities in pulmonary vasculature, such as hepatopulmonary syndrome and portopulmonary hypertension may also develop. Each complication has unique treatment challenges and implications for liver transplantation. The presence of atrial fibrillation and atherosclerosis in liver disease brings another layer of complexity, particularly in terms of anticoagulation and statin use. This article provides an overview of cardiac syndromes in liver disease, focusing on current treatment options and future perspectives.
