Summary

Marfan syndrome (MS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1) encoding the protein fibrillin-1. Fibrillin is the main component of microfibrils, elements found in all of the body's tissues, and this pathology is characterized by the multitude of its clinical manifestations. These patients may develop aneurysms in the aortic root and one of the main factors of morbidity in patients with MS is aortic dissection. Prevention mainly involves preventive aortic surgery. However, the repercussions are global and can affect the functioning of other tissues such as skeletal muscle tissue, bone tissue, lung tissue and the eyes. The association of skeletal (scoliosis, hyperlaxity), muscular and ocular disorders is clearly associated with an impairment in the quality of life. These disorders are associated with pain and disability which affect professional activity, leisure and family life.

Physical activity could represent a relevant alternative for these patients. A recent animal study suggests that moderate training is beneficial.
