Abstract 145: Differences in Presenting Symptoms of Fibromuscular Dysplasia Patients With Family History of Fibromuscular Dysplasia, Arterial Aneurysm, Dissection, or Sudden Death: A Report from the United States Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia [Session Title: Abstract Poster Session I and Reception]

Conclusions: Patients with a family history of FMD, arterial aneurysm (AA), dissection (AD), or sudden death (SD) more commonly had extracranial arterial bed complications, and experienced symptoms related to this vascular territory at time of diagnosis. These results suggest that FMD may present differently in those with this family history.
