Dynamics of the Liver Stiffness Value Using Transient Elastography during the Perioperative Period in Patients with Valvular Heart Disease

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Liver congestion due to heart failure in patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) can result in an overestimate of the liver stiffness (LS) as assessed by transient elastography (TE). This prospective pilot study investigated the dynamics of LS during the perioperative valve opera...
