“…100 Congenital portosystemic shunt (Abernethy malformation) is an exceedingly rare condition with <100 cases reported. [101][102][103] It is accompanied by CHD in 22% of cases, especially in the setting of polysplenia or left isomerism, and often presents with hyperammonemia, regenerative nodular liver lesions, and hepatocellular carcinoma.…”

ABSTRACT:Life expectancy and quality of life for those born with congenital heart disease (CHD) have greatly improved over the past 3 decades. While representing a great advance for these patients, who have been able to move from childhood to successful adult lives in increasing numbers, this development has resulted in an epidemiological shift and a generation of patients who are at risk of developing chronic multisystem disease in adulthood. Noncardiac complications significantly contribute to the morbidity and mortality of adults with CHD. Reduced survival has been documented in patients with CHD with renal dysfunction, restrictive lung disease, anemia, and cirrhosis. Furthermore, as this population ages, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and its risk factors are becoming increasingly prevalent. Disorders of psychosocial and cognitive development are key factors affecting the quality of life of these individuals. It is incumbent on physicians who care for patients with CHD to be mindful of the effects that disease of organs other than the heart may have on the well-being of adults with CHD. Further research is needed to understand how these noncardiac complications may affect the long-term outcome in these patients and what modifiable factors can be targeted for preventive intervention.

“…Heart failure and constrictive pericarditis may lead to hepatic fibrosis (''cardiac cirrhosis'') complicated by ascites and may be mistaken for other causes of cirrhosis. Other acute and chronic liver diseases (e.g., ischemic hepatitis, congestive hepatopathy and Fontan-associated liver disease) can also be caused by heart failure [68]. Conversely, cirrhosis not infrequently is associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension resulting in deterioration of heart function due to chronic passive venous congestion [69].…”

Hyponatremia in patients with liver diseases: not just a cirrhosis-induced hemodynamic compromise

et al. 2016

Hyponatremia (Na(+) <135 mmol/l) is the most common electrolyte disorder. Cirrhosis represents a rather frequent cause of hyponatremia mainly due to systemic and splanchnic vasodilation resulting in decreased effective arterial blood volume, which leads to excessive non-osmotic secretion of antidiuretic hormone. However, hyponatremia of multifactorial origin may be seen in patients with liver diseases. The review focuses on the factors and pathogenetic mechanisms of decreased sodium levels other than the hemodynamic compromise of cirrhosis in patients with liver diseases. The mechanisms and causal or contributing role of pseudohyponatremia, hyperglycemia, infections, drugs and toxins as well as of endocrine disorders, renal failure and cardiac disease in patients with liver disease are meticulously discussed. Hyponatremia of multifactorial origin is frequently observed in patients with liver diseases, and special efforts should be made to delineate the underlying causative and precipitating factors as well as the risk factors of the osmotic demyelination syndrome in order to properly manage this serious electrolyte disorder and avoid treatment pitfalls.

“…Over time, this leads to hepatocyte atrophy, hepatic fibrosis, and portal hypertension [44]. As listed in the Table, increased CVP is encountered in multiple CHD contexts, either through direct elevation of RA pressure [as from left-to-right shunting or tricuspid regurgitation (TR)], secondary elevation of RA pressure due to sub-pulmonic ventricular failure, or following Fontan palliation.…”

a b s t r a c tAdvancement in correction or palliation of congenital cardiac lesions has greatly improved the lifespan of congenital heart disease patients, resulting in a rapidly growing adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) population. As this group has increased in number and age, emerging science has highlighted the systemic nature of ACHD. Providers caring for these patients are tasked with long-term management of multiple neurologic, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, and endocrine manifestations that arise as syndromic associations with congenital heart defects or as sequelae of primary structural or hemodynamic abnormalities. In this review, we outline the current understanding and recent research into these extra-cardiac manifestations.Key words: Cardiovascular disease, Adult congenital heart disease, Pulmonary hypertension. Advances in the diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease (CHD) over the past several decades have greatly improved longevity and quality of life in the CHD population. Palliative or corrective interventions are now available for nearly every type of congenital cardiac lesion, and approximately 90% of affected children now survive to adulthood [1]. Adults with CHD (ACHD) already outnumber pediatric CHD patients, and this population is expected to grow by 5% per year [1,2]. Strikingly, the median age of severe CHD patients has increased from 11 years in 1985 to 25 years in 2010 [3]. Continued improvement in CHD interventions means that new (and more complex) populations will likely reach adulthood in the coming years.Practitioners who take care of adults with CHD are often charged with the delivery or coordination of comprehensive care for these complex patients, including the management of manifestations and complications that arise later in life. ACHD has many extra-cardiac effects, both as syndromic associations with congenital heart defects, or more commonly, as sequelae of primary structural or hemodynamic abnormalities. The role of genetic predilection remains undefined for nearly all extra-cardiac complications, though their incidence has clearly risen over the past decades. Indeed, more than a third of hospital admissions for ACHD patients are now for noncardiovascular reasons [4]. Optimal care of ACHD patients, therefore, mandates a thorough understanding of its multiorgan system manifestations. Herein, we will review current understanding of the most common manifestations of ACHD organized by the affected organ systems. Neurologic/neuropsychiatric Cerebrovascular complicationsA recent study quantified the strikingly high rates of stroke in ACHD [5]. Among nearly 30,000 ACHD patients, 8.9% of men http://dx
