Description
Enock Adjei and co-authors report a rare case of heavy heart muscle calcification found after a liver transplant, in work from 2024. Calcium build-up in the heart wall has seldom been tied to liver replacement surgery. Prior reports involved patients with symptoms. Their patient had none, a first in print. The calcification spread widely and fast despite the quiet course. The report's abstract is brief, so this note stays at that level. The case alerts transplant teams to check the heart even when nothing feels wrong.
