Key result
Advanced surgical techniques and earlier intervention reduce postoperative morbidity and mortality in Marfan syndrome.
Why the study?
Marfan's syndrome involves pronounced abnormalities in multiple systems with aortic dilatation and dissection as major causes of morbidity and mortality, necessitating updated review of advances in management.
This review highlights that earlier surgical intervention and advanced techniques have reduced morbidity and mortality associated with aortic dilatation and dissection in Marfan's syndrome.
