| Summary: | Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is a vicious circle caused by the interaction between heart failure and kidney disease having a poor prognosis. We have reviewed a case of a patient with rheumatic heart disease valve replacement and repair surgery, diagnosed on admission as having CRS, combined with cardiogenic liver cirrhosis and severe scrotal edema. He was discharged after repeated blood puri-fication treatments. The patient died within the three months following after discharge. It is suggested that for patients with CRS and cardiogenic liver cirrhosis for whom surgery is no longer an option, the short-term effect of blood purification treatment is acceptable, however the long-term prognosis still needs more case observation. |
