Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Class IIa |
"1. Sequencing of the ACTA2 gene is reasonable in patients with a family history of thoracic aortic aneurysms and/or dissections to determine if ACTA2 mutations are responsible for the inherited predisposition.[2][3][4][5][6][7] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Class IIb |
"1. Sequencing of other genes known to cause familial thoracic aortic aneurysms and/or dissection (TGFBR1, TGFBR2, MYH11) may be considered in patients with a family history and clinical features associated with mutations in these genes.[2][3][4][5][6][7] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
"2. If one or more first-degree relatives of a patient with known thoracic aortic aneurysm and/or dissection are found to have thoracic aortic dilatation, aneurysm, or dissection, then referral to a geneticist may be considered. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
