  7. Evidence is adequate on the short-term safety and efficacy of personalised external aortic root support (PEARS) using mesh to prevent aortic root expansion and aortic dissection in people with Marfan syndrome. Evidence on long-term outcomes is limited in quantity and quality. Therefore, this procedure should only be used with special arrangements for clinical governance, consent and audit or research. Find out what special arrangements mean on the NICE interventional procedures guidance page. Further research should report details of patient selection, including aortic diameter, and long-term outcomes, including evidence of disease progression, such as dilation and dissection of the aortic root.
