Genetic Architecture of Acute Aortic Syndromes and Aortic Aneurysm.
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The aim of this study is to explore the genetic information associated with the development of TAA and aAD in individuals without history or syndromic features (Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Turner syndrome etc.) for aortic disease. For this purpose, whole genome sequencing will be performed in patients with documented aortic aneurysm or/and aortic dissection.
