Giant internal carotid artery aneurysms and porcelain aorta in an elderly patient with Marfan syndrome

Abstract Marfan syndrome (MFS) an inherited disorder caused by FBN1 gene variants, is well known to cause lethal aortic aneurysm and dissections at a relatively young age. Here, we report giant internal carotid artery aneurysms (ICAAs) and porcelain aorta in an elderly patient with MFS.
