This week we enter the world of the adult congenital heart patient when we discuss Fontan associated liver disease with an ACHD expert, Dr. Katia Bravo-Jaimes of the Mayo Clinic. In this episode we discuss the role of intrahepatic transcriptomics and how genetic analysis of liver biopsy tissue may provide new insights into the pathophysiology of this disease process. How can differential gene expression in the liver of Fontan patients help to explain why some patients have mild versus others severe fibrosis or even frank cirrhosis? Can these insights provide hope for improved surveillance or therapy for this problem? Dr. Bravo-Jaimes provides the answers this week.
