Left ventricular function in the Marfan syndrome without significant valvular regurgitation
R Chatrath, LM Beauchesne, HM Connolly… - American Journal of …, 2003 - ajconline.org
Assessment of left ventricular (LV) size and function in many patients with the Marfan
syndrome is confounded by the presence of aortic or mitral regurgitation. Therefore, we
sought to determine LV size and function in a cohort of patients with the Marfan syndrome
who had only mild or no aortic or mitral valve regurgitation.
