Abstract

Hereditary connective tissue diseases have different risks of aortic dissection depending on the causative gene. We report a family with no extravascular phenotype and a clinical diagnosis of familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection, but genetic testing confirmed p.Tyr470Cys in TGFBR2, which is typically the responsible gene for Loeys-Dietz syndrome. Validation of the clinical diagnosis by genetic testing is warranted.

一例 TGFBR2 中 p.Tyr470Cys 基因导致主动脉扩张的家族病例，其表型仅包括血管病变。

遗传性结缔组织疾病的致病基因不同，主动脉夹层的风险也不同。我们报告了一个没有血管外表型的家族，临床诊断为家族性胸主动脉瘤和夹层，但基因检测证实了 TGFBR2 中的 p.Tyr470Cys，而 TGFBR2 通常是 Loeys-Dietz 综合征的致病基因。有必要通过基因检测验证临床诊断。
