In this article, we describe a case of a 33-year-old female with Alagille syndrome complicated by bilateral branch pulmonary artery stenosis resulting in moderate pulmonary hypertension, end-stage liver disease complicated by portal hypertension, and chronic renal disease who presented for combined liver-kidney transplant. Alagille syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease affecting the liver, heart, and kidneys. Multidisciplinary preoperative evaluation was performed with a team consisting of a congenital heart disease cardiologist, a cardiac anesthesiologist, a nephrologist, and a transplant surgeon. We describe Alagille syndrome and our intraoperative management. To our knowledge, this is the first description of a combined liver-kidney transplant in an adult patient with Alagille syndrome.
