Patients with Marfan syndrome experience an expansion of the aorta that can lead to dissection or rupture of it. This is the main cause of mortality in these patients.\n\nThe main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Losartan versus Atenolol in the progression of aortic dilation in patients with Marfan syndrome.\n\nThe measurement is made by echocardiography, assessing the diameter of the aorta in different zones: valve annulus, sinuses of Valsalva, sinotubular junction, ascending aorta, aortic arch, thoracic and abdominal aorta.\n\nA total number of 150 subjects diagnosed with Marfan syndrome and who meet the diagnostic criteria of Ghent, of both sexes, 75 per treatment group, aged between 5 and 60, will be included in the study.
