Marfan's syndrome (dolichostenomelia) includes a wide range of symptoms; when fully expresses, the bone, ocucal and cardiovascular systems are affected. The basic criteria are:
- tall figure
- long limbs
- long thin fingers (arachnodaktyly)
- dislocation of the lens (ectopia lentis)
- cardiovascular anomalies (mitral valve prolapse, aortic aneurism affecting Valsalva`s sinuses or aortic regurgitation, pulmonary dilatation)
It is an inherited AD disease but spontaneous mutation are common, with a frequency of approximately 1:10 000. The violinist Niccolò Paganini, for example, suffered from this syndrome.
A common causes of death at an early age are aneurysm ruptura, aortic dissection or heart failure due to aortic regurgitation (possibly mitral regurgitation).
Etiopathogenesis
- Hereditary disorder of the mesenchyme (mutations in the gene for fibrilin 1 (FBN1; 15q21.1) – closely related to elastin, mutations in the procollagen I gene have also been found)
- Disorders of mucopolysaccharide metabolism are characteristic
The clinical picture
- Graceful skeleton with a shorter torso (ratio of upper and lower body segment <0.85) and noticeably long and elongated fingers and toes, dolichocephaly
- „Thumb flag“ (thumb extending beyond the ulnar margin of the hand with the fingers clenched into a fist)
- „Wrist symptom“ (when the wrist is freely embraced, the thumb exceeds the little finger)
- Hypotonic muscles, soft fibrous apparatus (ligament laxity) → scoliosis, kyphosis, chest deformities (pectus excavatum / carinatum)
- Hypermobile joints, scapulae alatae, genua valga, genua recurvata, pedes planovalgi
- Habitual subluxation, joint dislocation
- PIP flexion contractures, sometimes of the elbow and knee joints
- Eye defects (ectopia lentis, flattened cornea)
- Aortic root dilatation
- Aneurysm of the ascending aorta (Erdheim cystic medionecrosis)
- Dental anomalies, gothic floor
- Risk of spontaneous pneumotorax, apical lunt bubble
- Striae atrophicae on the skin and recurrent hernia
- Hydroxyproline in urine
X-ray image
- Dilation of the medullary cavity at the expense of compacts
- Metacarps, metatarsis and basic phalanges elnogated x middle and distal phalanges tend to be shorter
Therapy
- Prevention of contractors by exercising
- Exceptionally symptomatic surgical treatment (treatment of scoliosis and spondylolisthesis, reverse pelvic osteotomy with acetabular protrusion)
- Monitoring of cardiovascular and pulmonary disability, ev. intervention (life-threatening aortic aneurysm, spontaneous pneumothorax)
Prognóza
- Unfavorable (especially due to damage to the cardiovascular system):
- Aneurysm rupture
- Aortic dissection
- Heart failure due to aortic regurgitation
- Arrhytmias in mitral prolapse
- It is considered as a contraindication to pregnancy (or indication for an abortion)
- During continued pregnancy: regular check-ups and no greater physical activity, β-blockers, delivery usually by a caesarean section
Differential Diagnosis
Homocystinuria: An AR disorder presenting with Marfanoid-Habitus. Homocystinuria may have both Healthy Parents (but both of them carriers) on the Family Pedigree. Marfan Syndrome is AD so you can see at least one parent manifesting the disease.
