Description

In this ERN Rare-Liver webinar, held on 9 April 2024, Juan Carlos García Pagán, Audrey Payancé and Luis Téllez focus on liver involvement in patients with Fontan-type circulation.

Fontan-associated liver disease is an orphan, novel, and challenging chronic liver disorder that appear in patients with univentricular cardiac malformations treated with Fontan surgery. ERN and EASL have recently launched a position document focusing on management of this particular and fragile population. We consider that the diffusion of this document conclusions is an unmet need that should be addressed.
