In particular, based on the clinical and genetic findings, patients have been classified into two groups: (a) patients with HL and distinct phenotypes not fitting in a known syndrome due to mutations at two loci (e.g., HL in association with Marfan syndrome) and (b) patients with two genes involved in HL phenotype (e.g., TMPRSS3 and MYH14). Here, TMPRSS3 is linked to Marfan syndrome.
