This study examines clinical features as first and second intention criteria for identifying children with Marfan syndrome (MFS) based on age groups. Parameters such as height, arm span to height ratio, hypermobility, pectus deformity, thumb sign, wrist sign, scoliosis angle, and striae are taken into account. Results show varying discriminatory values between MFS and non-MFS children.
