Kai Zhao, Roy Wang, Malek Kamoun, Lauren Callans, Remy Bremner, Eduardo Rame, Rhondalyn McLean, Marisa Cevasco, Kim M. Olthoff, Matthew H. Levine, Abraham Shaked, Peter L. Abt – 4 March 2022 – Combined heart–liver transplantation (CHLT) is indicated for patients with concomitant end‐stage heart and liver disease or patients with amyloid heart disease where liver transplantation mitigates progression.
