    Author: Ferguson JE, Ueland K, Stinson EB, Maly RP.
    Journal: Am J Obstet Gynecol; 1983 Dec 01; 147(7):759-62. PubMed ID: 6650596.
    Abstract:
    A unique case of Marfan's syndrome is presented in which the diagnosis was first established during early labor when the patient presented with chest pain, hypotension, and fetal distress as the earliest symptoms and signs. Prompt diagnosis in combination with correct medical and surgical therapy resulted in the survival of both the mother and infant.
