Liver Failure
The derangement of hepatocellular function that occurs in cirrhosis manifests as impaired hepatic protein synthesis (hypoalbuminemia, impaired synthesis of coagulation factors) and failure of normal hepatic detoxification processes. The latter accounts for the development of signs such as spider angiomata and contributes to the development of hepatic encephalopathy, as well as to poorly understood hemodynamic and hormonal disorders that foster the development of ascites and the hepatorenal syndrome.
