Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Talk Liver To Me - Haemochromatosis in 2026: Who Needs Testing and Who Needs Treatment?
Q: What are the practicalities and intervals for venesection?
Initiate with weekly phlebotomies to drop ferritin to 50–100, then move to maintenance aiming below 100, adjusting frequency (roughly 4–6 times per year, but individualized) and monitoring Hb to avoid anemia, with attention to comorbidities and potential occult cancers in older patients.
Talk Liver To Me - Haemochromatosis in 2026: Who Needs Testing and Who Needs Treatment?
Q: How do you interpret C282Y heterozygosity or compound heterozygosity?
C282Y heterozygosity alone often requires reassurance, as it may not explain iron overload; compound heterozygosity requires looking for additional causes and risk factors since the genotype alone does not fully explain the phenotype, though there may be small incremental iron loading in the liver.
Talk Liver To Me - Haemochromatosis in 2026: Who Needs Testing and Who Needs Treatment?
Q: What should trigger genetic testing beyond ferritin and TSAT thresholds?
Elevated iron parameters are the usual entry point, but MRI findings suggesting iron overload (e.g., liver iron on specialized sequences) or MRI/biopsy results showing hepatic iron storage can prompt genotyping, especially when non-iron-related causes are being considered.
Talk Liver To Me - Haemochromatosis in 2026: Who Needs Testing and Who Needs Treatment?
Q: Who should we test for hemochromatosis, and who should we treat?
Testing should start with elevated transferrin saturation (TSAT) and ferritin, followed by HFE genetic testing when two abnormal readings are present; relatives with homozygous HFE variants should be offered testing, and treatment with venesection is advised for anyone with iron overload, aiming to prevent progression and organ damage.
Talk Liver To Me - Liver Transplantation: Rise of the machines
Q: How has machine perfusion changed daily practice for surgeons in the UK?
It has shifted much of the testing and viability assessment to specialized organ perfusion teams, increasing safety and extending the donor pool, especially for DCD livers.
