A brief peri-cementation episode of hypotension and mild hypoxemia was followed, within the early postoperative period, by abrupt elevation of aminotransferases (AST 4980 IU/L; ALT 3120 IU/L), coagulopathy (INR ≥ 1.5), transient neurological alteration compatible with early hepatic encephalopathy, severe acute kidney injury, and new-onset atrial fibrillation. Here, GPT is linked to acute kidney injury.
