| Abstrakt: | The cardio-renal syndromes (CRS) recently were defined systematically as disorders of the heart or kidney whereby dysfunction of one organ leads to dysfunction of another. Five types of CRS are defined. The first four types describe acute or chronic cardio-renal or renocardiac syndromes. Type 5 CRS refers to secondary cardio-renal syndrome or cardio-renal involvement in systemic conditions. It is a clinical and pathophysiological entity to describe the concomitant presence of renal and cardiovascular dysfunction. Type 5 CRS can be acute or chronic and it does not strictly satisfy the definition of CRS. However, it encompasses many conditions in which combined heart and kidney dysfunction is observed. Because this entity has been described only recently there is limited information about the epidemiology, clinical course, and treatment of this condition. (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
