Endovascular treatment of a dural arteriovenous fistula in a patient with Loeys-Dietz syndrome: A case report.

Conclusions To our knowledge, this is the first case report of dAVF associated with LDS. The relationship between LDS and dAVF is unknown but this report shows the possibility that mutation of transforming growth factor β receptors 2 ( TGFBR2) related to LDS may be related to shunt diseases. Because intervention in LDS seems to be feasible compared to Ehlers Danlos syndrome and Marfan syndrome, it is important to make the correct diagnosis. PMID: 28304197 [PubMed - in process]
