Abstract

Background: Little is known about the prevalence of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients with Ebstein's anomaly (EA). Known and established surgical criteria of EA are impaired right ventricular (RV) function with high-grade tricuspid regurgitation (TI). Could existing liver fibrosis or cirrhosis be considered an additional criterion for surgery?
