Brief Summary:
The aim of this observational study is to define the behavioural and cardiovascular risk factor profiles of patients with genetic aortopathies. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* How do the interconnections between lifestyle, stress, psychological condition, perception of illness, and state of health influence each other in this population?
* Beyond traditional risk factors, additional emerging factors should be considered, including pregnancy-related complications, sedentary lifestyle, early menopause and depression. The interplay between eating disorders, lifestyle factors and autoimmune or inflammatory bowel diseases remains poorly understood.
Detailed Description:
Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) present peculiar symptoms as well as high mortality due to complications related to dilatation and dissection of the ascending aorta and great arteries. The presence or absence of extra-aortic features determines whether TAADs are syndromic, associated with diseases affecting other systems and organs, or non-syndromic, with manifestations limited to the aorta. Life expectancy of patients withTAA has improved markedly in the last decades, but still remains lower than that of the general population.
