Ischemic hepatitis, also known as hypoxic hepatitis or shock liver, refers to liver damage caused by insufficient blood supply due to reduced oxygenation. There are a few synonyms for ischemic hepatitis that can be used to describe this condition, including hepatic ischemia, liver hypoxia, and shock-induced hepatic injury. These terms are often used interchangeably to describe the same condition, where the liver becomes damaged and inflamed due to a lack of oxygen and nutrient supply. Ischemic hepatitis is usually caused by conditions that affect blood flow to the liver, such as heart failure, hypovolemia, or shock, and it can lead to serious liver dysfunction if left untreated.
