Noninfectious Necrotizing Aortitis With Predominantly Neutrophilic Infiltrate
Case Reports in Pathology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Aortitis can be either infectious or noninfectious, and cases of noninfectious aortitis are not well understood. Our study presents a case of noninfectious ascending aortitis in a relatively young, previously healthy man, characterized by a predominantly neutrophilic infiltrate on histopathological examination without an inciting microorganism.

Marfan syndrome: current perspectives
The Application of Clinical Genetics, 2016 Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a pleiotropic connective tissue disease inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, due to mutations in the FBN1 gene encoding fibrillin 1. It is an important protein of the extracellular matrix that contributes to the final structure of a microfibril.
