syndrome/phenotype[edit]

Are MASS syndrome and MASS phenotype different things? Clarinetguy097 (talk) 04:41, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mutation[edit]

I removed the following sentence because it's refering to the mutation that causes Marfan syndrome, and it's not clear that MASS syndrome is caused by the same mutation:

This mutation is an autosomal dominant^[1] mutation.
