The Loeys-Dietz syndrome: an update for the clinician.

Current opinion in cardiology - 1 Nov 2010

Van Hemelrijk Christine, Renard Marjolijn, Loeys Bart

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) dissection is an important cause of death in the western world. Especially in young adults, the genetic contribution to this disease is estimated to be high, as at least one out of five probands has a positive family history for aortic aneurysms/dissections. In recent years, major progress has been made in the identification of several genes underlying both...
