- Cardiovascular
manifestations of Marfan
syndrome include

and cardiac valves,
including aneurysms, tears
(dissection), and leaky heart
valves that may require
replacement or repair.
Therefore, competitive or
contact sports are

of cardiac injury and
sudden death

hydroxylase) required for

phenylalanine into the
amino acid tyrosine. As
unconverted phenylalanine
accumulates, irreversible
neurologic damage can
occur.
How is phenylketonuria - Monitoring serum levels of
treated? phenylalanine
- Including synthetic
proteins and special
formulas (eg, Lofenalac,
Phenyl-Free) in the diet
- Eliminating high-
phenylalanine foods (eg,
meats, eggs, milk) from the
diet
- Encouraging the
consumption of natural
foods low in phenylalanine
(most fruits and vegetables)
