In asymptomatic Marfan syndrome (MFS) patients we evaluated the relationship between the types of fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene mutation and possible altered left ventricular (LV) function as assessed by three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE).
Forty-five MFS patients (mean age 24 ± 15 years) and 40 age-matched healthy controls we...
