| Popis: | Hepatic problems related to a Fontan circulation have been highlighted and elastography using ultrasound is a non-invasive tool that can measure the severity of hepatic stiffness. We investigated the hepatic stiffness using shear wave elastography (SWE) and related factors in patients with a Fontan circulation. This study enrolled 64 patients with a Fontan circulation who underwent cardiac catheterization and abdominal ultrasound from 2011 to 2015. The correlation between the laboratory tests, hemodynamic factors by cardiac catheterization, and SWE was evaluated. The patients were classified into non-cirrhotic level (≥ 2.0 m/s) and cirrhotic level ( |
