Many mutations have been mapped to this gene due to this increase in genetic screening and international collaborations confirming FBN1 as the gene responsible for Marfan syndrome [7–15]. This has been the final proof to confirm that the FBN1 gene is the cause of MFS....
Infants born to mothers with Marfan syndrome were more likely to be small for gestational age [79]. Given the autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of Marfan syndrome, preconception genetic counseling is crucial for all families in which either parent is affected. Table 4. Aortic Size in Marfan ...

马凡综合征(Marfan syndrome,MFS)属于一种先天性、遗传性结缔组织病,为常染色体显遗传,1896年一位法国儿科医师首次描述了其以骨骼、眼及心血管三大系统的缺陷为主要特征。其特点是晶状体异位、先天性心脏病以及细长体型与蜘蛛指 ( 趾),故又名蜘蛛指(趾)综合征。个体表现差异较大,容易误漏诊,预后较差,发病率约 ...
Marfan syndrome and related disorders are a group of heritable connective tissue disorders and share many clinical features that involve cardiovascular, skeletal, craniofacial, ocular, and cutaneous abnormalities. The majority of affected individuals hav
This review provides an overview of Marfan syndrome with an emphasis on cardiovascular complications and cardiovascular imaging. Both pre- and post-operative imaging is addressed with an explanation of surgical management. All relevant imaging modalities
Genes within this co-expressed cluster are candidate genetic modifiers for Marfan syndrome and for other connective tissue diseases.
