Popis: Item does not contain fulltext AIMS: The aorta in Marfan syndrome (MFS) patients is variably affected. We investigated the assumed genotype-effect on protein production as a risk factor for a severe aortic phenotype in adult MFS patients. METHODS AND RESULTS: We collected clinical and genetic data from all 570 adults with MFS who had been included in the Dutch CONgenital CORvitia registry since the start in 2001. Mean age was 36.5 +/- 13.5 years (51.2% male, 28.9% prior aortic surgery, 8.2% prior aortic dissection). Patients were prospectively followed for a mean duration of 8.2 +/- 3.1 years. Men had more frequently aortic surgery at baseline (38.0 vs. 19.4%, P < 0.001) and during follow-up (24.0 vs. 15.1%, P = 0.008) compared with women. After 10-year follow-up cumulative survival was 93.8% and dissection-free survival was 84.2%. We found a pathogenic FBN1 mutation in 357 patients, of whom 146 patients (40.9%) were positive for a mutation causing haploinsufficiency (reduced fibrillin-1 protein) and 211 (59.1%) for a mutation leading to a DN effect (abnormal fibrillin-1 protein). Corrected for age, sex, and previous aortic complications, patients with a haploinsufficient (HI) mutation had a 2.5-fold increased risk for cardiovascular death (hazard ratio, HR: 2.5, 95% CI: 1.0-6.1, P = 0.049), a 2.4-fold increased risk for the combined endpoint comprising death and dissection (HR: 2.4, 95% CI: 1.4-4.2, P < 0.001) and a 1.6-fold increased risk for any aortic complication compared with patients with a DN mutation (HR: 1.6, 95% CI 1.1-2.3, P = 0.014). CONCLUSION: Marfan syndrome patients with an HI mutation are at increased risk for cardiovascular death and aortic dissection compared with patients with a DN mutation.
