Serum Bile Acids in Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: A Marker for Liver and Heart?

Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot may develop chronic right ventricular dysfunction and hepatic congestion over time. We hypothesized that bile acid metabolism is altered in repaired tetralogy of Fallot patients and therefore sought to correlate right ventricular indices with serum bile aci...
