Marfan syndrome is a disorder of connective tissue: the proteins that support the skin, bones, blood vessels and other organs. One of those proteins is fibrillin, and a problem in the fibrillin gene causes the syndrome.

Signs

It can be mild or severe, and its symptoms vary.

  • People with Marfan syndrome are often very tall and thin, with loose joints.
  • Most have heart and blood vessel problems, such as a weak aorta or leaky heart valves.
  • It can also cause problems with the bones, eyes, skin, nervous system and lungs.

Diagnosis and treatment

There is no specific test for it. A doctor may diagnose it from your medical history, your family history and a physical exam. There is no cure, but medicines, surgery and other therapies can help delay or prevent complications.
