Aortic Dilatation Under 5 cm: Genetic Risk Mapping
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
This retrospective study investigates the prevalence of genetic mutations in patients with ascending aortic dilatation measuring between 4.0 and 5.0 cm-below the standard surgical threshold. Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), both syndromic and non-syndromic aortopathy gene panels were analyzed in 102 patients who had no history of aortic surgery, dissection, or known genetic disorders. Findings will be compared with population data to better understand genetic risk profiles in borderline aortic dilatation, potentially supporting earlier interventions based on genetic markers. The study was approved by the Samsun University Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee (GOKAEK, 2025/9/2).
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Frequency of Syndromic and Non-Syndromic Genetic Mutations — 12 months (Proportion of patients with identified mutations from the genetic panel using NGS.)
Assessment of the prevalence of genetic mutations associated with syndromic and non-syndromic aortopathies among patients with ascending aortic diameters between 4.0 and 5.0 cm.
