Combined Heart and Liver Transplantation in the Failing Fontan: Systematic Review and Single-arm Meta-analysis
CHLT in Fontan patients demonstrates promising survival rates, but graft rejection and postoperative complications pose challenges. The rate of renal complications is particularly notable and requires further evaluation. Future research should prioritize comparative different management strategies and long-term follow-up to refine protocols and optimize outcomes.
