Marfan Syndrome : A Case Report

Abstract EN

Marfan syndrome is an autosomal dominant systemic disorder of the connective tissue.

Children affected by the Marfan syndrome carry a mutation in one of their two copies of the gene that encodes the connective tissue protein fibrillin-1.

Marfan syndrome affects most organs and tissues, especially the skeleton, lungs, eyes, heart, and the large blood vessel that distributes blood from the heart to the rest of the body.

A case report of Marfan syndrome has been reported with oral features.

The dental problems of the child were treated under general anesthesia and a one-month review showed intact stainless steel crowns' restorations and no signs of secondary caries.
