ABSTRACT
Iron overload cardiomyopathy secondary to ß-thalassemia major is a potentially reversible condition managed with chelation and medical hemodynamic support, as bridge-to-recovery or transplant. We describe our experience, and challenges faced, in a pediatric patient with iron overload cardiomyopathy secondary to ß-thalassemia major, requiring biventricular MCS.
