The last overview of hepatic encephalopathy, a clinical problem in which two distinct disciplines meet, was written by a hepatologist more than a decade ago; it was criticized for its omissions of neurochemical issues.

It has succeeded in some aspects while falling short in others. Controversy has characterized research in hepatic encephalopathy. Of the nine chapters of this book, five deal with different candidate neurotoxins that have been studied over the past four decades. The role of ammonia

It is characterized by various neurologic symptoms including changes in reflexes, changes in consciousness , and behavior changes that can range from mild to severe. Alternative Names: Hepatic coma; Encephalopathy - hepatic Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Hepatic encephalopathy is caused by disorders affecting the liver. These include disorders that reduce liver function (such as cirrhosis or hepatitis ) and conditions where blood circulation bypasses the liver. The exact cause of the disorder is unknown. However, when the liver cannot properly metabolize and detoxify substances in the body, toxic substances build up in the bloodstream. One substance believed to be particularly toxic to the central nervous system is ammonia , which is produced by the body when proteins are digested, but is normally detoxified by the liver. Many other substances may also accumulate in the body and contribute to damage to the nervous system.

The liver cannot properly metabolize and detoxify substances in the body. Accumulation of toxic substances causes metabolic abnormalities that lead to damage in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). One substance believed to be toxic is ammonia , which is produced by the body when proteins are digested, but normally is detoxified by the liver. Many other substances also accumulate in the body and damage the nervous system.
