LI is a subset of the heterotaxy syndrome and a rare birth defect that involves the heart and other organs. It can be combined with extracardiac abnormalities, especially BA. CHD can be associated with LI in up to 15% of cases, although it is rare in BA. Pediatric LT for a child with ESLD due to BA combined with LI and CHD is a challenging issue for a transplant surgeon. Herein, we report a successful split LT on a three-yr-old boy with LI who survived after a Fontan procedure due to single ventricle, but who suffered from HPS associated with BA.
左心异构是内脏异位综合征的一个子集,是一种涉及心脏和其他器官的罕见出生缺陷。它可合并心外异常,尤其是胆道闭锁。高达15%的病例中先天性心脏病可与左心异构相关,尽管在胆道闭锁中较为罕见。对于因胆道闭锁合并左心异构和先天性心脏病导致终末期肝病的儿童进行小儿肝移植,对移植外科医生来说是一个具有挑战性的问题。在此,我们报告一例成功的活体肝移植手术,对象是一名患有左心异构的三岁男孩,该男孩因单心室接受Fontan手术后存活,但患有与胆道闭锁相关的肝门周围硬化。
