A Rare Case of Surviving Aortic Dissection With Dominant Left Coronary in a Patient With Newly Diagnosed Marfan Syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Marfan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease with high penetrance and marked phenotypic variation caused by a mutation in the fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1) on chromosome 15. There is known multisystem involvement of Marfan syndrome; however, cardiovascular manifestations are the main cause of morbidity and mortality in affected patients. Although the most common cardiovascular manifestation is mitral valve prolapse, it is aortic involvement that has the greatest impact on prognosis. Within the aortic pathologies, aortic dilation is quite common, occurring in 60-80% of all adults with Marfan syndrome. Aortic dilation typically occurs in the aortic root due to its higher elastic fiber content, composed of fibrillin, and the wall stress and cyclic torsion that this segment experiences during ventricular systole. Aortic regurgitation, a late manifestation, is generally secondary to aortic dilation. In the general population, right coronary dominance is seen in 70%, whereas left dominance is found in approximately 18% with the remaining population demonstrating a balanced pattern. We present a patient with no prior medical history who presented with a 3-month history of cough and worsening shortness of breath, was admitted for pneumonia, was subsequently found to have an 83 mm (8.3 cm) dilation of the ascending aorta and aortic root, and survived in part due to left dominant coronary circulation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
