Pediheart Podcast #151: Fate Of The Fontan Patient Liver Following Heart-Only Transplantation

This week we delve back into the world of the Fontan to discuss the fate of the liver in the Fontan patient. We speak with hepatologist, Professor Dellys Soler Rodriguez of Emory University about a recent work she published on the fate of the liver in patients following heart-only transplantation who were Fontan patients. How should these patients be monitored? How should all Fontan patients be monitored? What is the role of the liver biopsy in this evaluation? Dr. Soler Rodriguez provides the insights this week!
