Relation of aortic root dilatation and age in Marfan's syndrome
Aims The main aim of this study was to describe the age at which pathological aortic root dilation occurs in patients with Marfan's syndrome (MFS). Methods and results A total of 160 patients with MFS attending a regional cardiac centre were reviewed ...
