Successful Liver Transplantation for Coats Plus Syndrome With Hepatopulmonary Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
Historically, LT for HPS patients with TBDs was avoided because of uncertain prognosis and potential disease progression in other organs. However, early-stage LT in TBDs may be preferable and reduce the complexity of LT. Before irreversible changes in intrapulmonary blood vessels occur, early hypoxemia monitoring and regular imaging are essential to ensure timely LT for HPS.
