CAMMARATA-SCALISI, F et al. Mutation c.3037G>A in the FBN1 gene associated with neonatal Marfan syndrome variant. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.6, pp.567-571.  Epub 10-Oct-2022. ISSN 2306-4102.  https://doi.org/10.35366/105712.

Marfan syndrome ([MS], OMIM 154700) is a connective tissue disorder that exhibits an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, whose clinical characteristics can affect multiple systems or organs in a variable way. It is caused by mutations in the FBN1 gene (OMIM 134797) located at 15q21.1. Neonatal MS is an uncommon variety of the entity associated with missense mutation between exons 23-33 and truncating mutations, exhibits a more severe phenotype and high percentage of mortality in the first years of life. The case of male adolescent with neonatal MS and missense mutation (c.3037G> A; p.Gly225Arg) in exon 24 of the FBN1 gene is presented. Given these findings, interfamilial phenotype variation, the early interdisciplinary medical evaluation necessary for the management of possible complications, as well as the appropriate family genetic counseling were studied.
