Case Summary

  • Liver transplantation is the only definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease. Medical treatments often fail to improve survival in the face of life-threatening complications.

Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) plays a significant role in evaluating the heart pre-transplant and assessing graft quality intraoperatively.
