Anesthesia management of combined sequential heart-liver transplantation using a caval clamp without venovenous bypass: A case report.

Familial amyloid polyneuropathy, an autosomal-dominant disease due to mutations in the transthyretin gene, often affects the heart and liver, and is treated best with a combined heart-liver transplantation (CHLT).

Because of the complexity associated with dual pathophysiology, CHLT poses an extraordinary challenge for anesthesia management.
