摘要
Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is one of the major complications after a Fontan operation. Some PLE patients suffer from concurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. An effective treatment regimen for such patients has not been established yet. Further, it remains unknown whether PLE and gastrointestinal bleeding coexist inde-pendently, or protein losing is associated with gastrointestinal bleeding. We report a 7-year-old steroid-refractory post-Fontan PLE case suggesting the latter pathogenesis together with a literature review.
