| Description |
If weakness of the wall of the artery underlies development of an aneurysm, aneurysms should develop with higher frequency in patients with diseases that affect collagen. Indeed, some connective tissue diseases, particularly fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Marfans syndrome, and pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), are thought to be associated with an increased frequency of aneurysm formation. |
