What cardiovascular treatments are used for Marfan syndrome patients?
The use of beta-blocker agents, medications used to prevent progressive enlargement of the aorta and treat high blood pressure, have become an essential aspect of cardiovascular management. Individuals with Marfan syndrome are advised to refrain from heavy lifting and forceful activity. In the case of aortic regurgitation or significant dilation of the aortic root, surgical repair may become necessary.
