Losartan therapy for cardiac disease in paediatricMarfan syndrome.

Lisa J Ewans1, Phillip Roberts2, Lesley Adès1.   

Abstract

A case of severe early-onset Marfan syndrome (MFS) led us to ask the question: 'Should an ARB, particularly losartan [intervention], compared with beta blockade alone [comparison], be commenced in all paediatric MFS patients [patient] with aortic root dilatation [outcome]?' The current literature was critically appraised to address this question.
