The histology showed the typical marfanoid structure of a thrombosed aneurysm. As far as we know, this is the first description of a hand aneurysm in a patient with Marfan syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
