Loeys-Dietz syndrome is a newly described entity characterised by a constellation of arterial tortuosity, cranial malformations, and hypertelorism. We report a case of a 7-year old boy with confirmed Loeys-Dietz syndrome and discuss magnetic resonance imaging as a complete technique for assessment and follow-up of aggressive vascular pathology in the brain, thorax, and abdomen, which may dictate early surgical intervention.
洛伊-迪茨综合征是一种新描述的疾病,其特征为一系列动脉迂曲、颅骨畸形和眼距过宽。我们报告一例确诊为洛伊-迪茨综合征的7岁男孩病例,并讨论磁共振成像作为评估和随访脑、胸及腹部侵袭性血管病变的完整技术,这可能决定早期手术干预。
