Marfan Syndrome and the School Nurse

Notas do Editor

  1. Dr. Antoine Marfan was a Paris pediatrician who described skeletal abnormalities in a 5 year old girl in 1896 In 1956 Dr. Victor McKusic said “What the suspensory ligament of the lens has in common with the media of the aorta is obscure, If this was known the basic defect of the Marfan syndrome might be understood .” He was proven correct in 1986 when a new connective tissue protein called Fibrillin was discovered. Fibrillin is an element of elastin tissue which is abundant in tissues affected in Marfan syndrome including the aorta, the suspensory ligaments of the lens, and the periosteum. A mutation in the FBN1 gene which encodes Fibrillin causes Marfan syndrome and other CTD phenotypes.
  2. Life expectancy has increased >25% since 1972, largely due to the current standard of care which includes early diagnosis, lifestyle modifications, medical management, notably beta-blockers like Atenolol, and greatly improved surgical procedures.
  3. It is an autosomal dominant disorder: In other words, If a person is affected, each of his or her children has a 50% chance of inheriting the syndrome. However, 25% of individuals with Marfan syndrome are spontaneous mutations: the first person in their family to have Marfan syndrome. It is caused by a mutation in the FBN1 gene which encodes the Fibrillin protein.
  4. However there are people with Marfan who are overweight and even short. The pigeon chest or pectus carinatum is a chest that protrudes out. The pectus excavatum is a concave chest. The chest can also be asymmetrical.
  5. See how this persons feet are pronating. Look how long these fingers are and how hyperextensible the thumb is.
  6. There can be mitral valve prolapse or arrhythmia. One of the cardinal signs is aortic root dilation. There can be up to a 250% greater chance of aortic root dissection. The risk of aortic dissection is in direct proportion to the size of the aorta, so we monitor the aortic size by echocardiogram or MRI every 6 months to one year. Aortic dissection can be either a tear in the inner wall with bleeding in to the wall of the aorta or can actually tear right through the aortic wall.
  7. The dura surrounding the spinal cord can stretch and bulge over time. Lens subluxation is a dislocation of the lens due to laxity of the ligaments in the eye.
  8. Loeys-Dietz Definition A recently identified aortic aneurysm syndrome that has some overlapping features with Marfan syndrome but has clearly distinct features.  Lens dislocation has not been associated with this disorder.  This syndrome is caused by a mutation in the genes encoding transforming growth factor beta receptor-1 (TGFBR1) or-2 (TGFBR2). The main clinical characteristics include: Widely spaced eyes (hypertelorism) Cleft palate or bifid uvula (a split in the tissue that hangs down in the back of the throat) Aortic and arterial aneurysms/dissections with tortuosity (corkscrew structure) of the arteries Other findings can include: Scoliosis Indented or protruding chest wall (pectus deformity) Contractures of fingers and toes (camptodactyly) Long fingers and lax joints Club foot Premature fusion of the skull bones (craniosynostosis) Joint hypermobility Congenital heart problems including patent ductus arteriosus (connection between the aorta and the lung circulation) and atrial septal defect (connection between heart chambers) Translucency of the skin with velvety texture Abnormal junction of the brain and medulla (Arnold-Chiari malformation) Cardiovascular Management: It is very important to know that the aneurysms can be widely distributed throughout arterial system and are not only limited to the aortic root.  Moreover the aortic root is subject to tear at smaller sizes than usually seen in Marfan syndrome.  This implies it is necessary to image the whole body arterial system and that surgery of the aortic root is indicated at earlier stages than in Marfan syndrome.
  9. Not all individuals with Marfan syndrome look alike so Marfan syndrome can be tricky to recognize.
  10. The comprehensive evaluation involves a visit to the ophthalmologist for a slit lamp exam to look for subluxed lenses and myopia, a cardiologist for an echocardiogram and EKG, and often a geneticist for a complete evaluation, genetic counseling and sometimes genetic testing. The bottom line is that diagnosis and treatment are determined by clinical evaluation.
  11. If it is used, it is used in the context of the comprehensive evaluation. LDS mutations are on different gene/different chromosome
  12. Postural screenings are very helpful in picking up scoliosis and asymmetry of the chest vision difficulties myopia, dislocated lenses You’re also in a key position to pick up any relevant history during the sports pre-participation evaluation.
  13. Postural screenings are very helpful in picking up scoliosis and asymmetry of the chest vision difficulties myopia, dislocated lenses You’re also in a key position to pick up any relevant history during the sports pre-participation evaluation.
  14. The pre-sports participation health release forms could reveal a family history of Marfan syndrome, as well as history of spontaneous pneumothorax, frequent joint dislocation, hernias, or visual problems.
  15. We usually do not restrict smaller children, any games that children play in kindergarten through 3 rd grade are usually fine. However, we need to start early in steering kids away from a path that leads to varsity sports. We don’t want to have a child become very sports oriented and then have to pull him from the activity when he is 10 years old. All children should get exercise and can do things like ride bikes or play golf.
