What are the results of the U.S. Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia?
The results of the U.S. Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia, as outlined in the study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, indicate that dissection and aneurysm are common in patients with fibromuscular dysplasia, with the most frequent sites of involvement being the carotid and vertebral arteries. The study also notes that the natural history of vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia is largely unknown, and that more research is needed to further understand the long-term outcomes of patients with fibromuscular dysplasia.
