Cardiology / General Cardiology
When a medical condition involves your heart or aorta, you must take it seriously. Aorta disease is a life-threatening condition if ignored. There are many causes for medical issues with your aorta, which is the largest and most important artery in your body. Marfan syndrome is one cause that your heart doctor NYC at the Cardiology Manhattan Center can identify. If you do suffer from Marfan syndrome, you can take steps to prevent aorta disease.
Marfan syndrome is an inherited condition that affects the connective tissue and can also affect both the heart and the aorta. It is seen in in individuals who have unusually long arms, fingers, and toes.It can be diagnosed by an echocardiogram which is a 30 minute test to determine any cardiac manifestations of the syndrome.
Types of Aortic Aneurysms
Aortic aneurysms fall into three categories:
Abdominal aortic aneurysms. If a rupture occurs in your aorta, it can result in fatal bleeding if not stopped with emergency surgery. Symptoms include back pain, feeling a pulse in your bellybutton area and a consistent, deep pain in your abdomen or on the side of your abdomen.
Thoracic aneurysms. When experiencing pain from a thoracic aneurysm, you feel an intense pulsing pain in your chest.
Thoracoabdominal aneurysms. When an aortic wall weakens from the effect of ballooning, it can eventually rupture your aorta. Then you need emergency surgery.
