A member asked:

Are there any vitamin deficiencies caused by marfan syndrome? does this disease cause problems like anemia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Marfan syndrome is an anatomic disorder only. It does not cause anemia, vitamin deficiency, or any other health problem other than those directly related to the anatomic problems (joints, heart valves, and others). Discuss with your doctor(s). Good luck.
