Adult‐onset noncirrhotic hyperammonemic encephalopathy probably caused by splenorenal shunts

This case illustrates adult‐onset noncirrhotic hyperammonemic encephalopathy, which is most likely caused by splenorenal shunts and is a rare but potentially fatal cause of altered mentation in the critical care setting.

description This case illustrates adult‐onset noncirrhotic hyperammonemic encephalopathy, which is most likely caused by splenorenal shunts and is a rare but potentially fatal cause of altered mentation in the critical care setting. Splenorenal shunts should be considered as a differential in cases of hyperammonemic encephalopathy without liver cirrhosis.
