Children born with complex heart defects and only one pumping chamber can now live into adulthood with an operation called the Fontan procedure. As this operation has only existed for 40 years, the long-term expectations for these children and young adults are still unclear, and their population is growing every year. There is now evidence that they may suffer from liver and kidney failure. This project will identify the severity of liver and kidney damage in our population of Fontan patients.

患有复杂心脏缺陷和只有一个泵室的儿童现在可以通过一种名为丰坦手术的手术存活到成年。由于这一行动只存在了40年，对这些儿童和年轻人的长期期望仍然不明朗，他们的人口每年都在增长。现在有证据表明，他们可能患有肝肾衰竭。该项目将确定我们Fontan患者群体中肝和肾损害的严重程度。
