Abstract
We described a case of Alagille syndrome with severe peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis and very high right ventricular pressure that underwent successful living-related liver transplantation without any peri-operative and mid-term postoperative complication because of this cardiac malformation. The aim of this report is to point out that the severe pulmonary artery stenosis may be a risk factor but not a contraindication to liver transplantation in patients with Alagille syndrome.Entities:
