Loeys-Dietz Syndrome (LDS) is a rare autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder characterized by vascular aneurysms, arterial dissections, and distinct craniofacial and skeletal anomalies. This study focuses on generating and characterizing two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines derived from LDS patients with distinct mutations in the TGFBR1 gene. These two iPSC lines were found to display characteristic iPSC morphology, strong expression of pluripotency markers, typical karyotypes, and the capacity for differentiation into the three germ layers.

We report the case of a 15-year-old girl who presented with a 2-month history of severe fatigue and rapidly worsening myalgia. Biological tests revealed hypereosinophilia and an inflammatory syndrome. MRI showed increased signal intensity in the superficial and deep aponeurotic layers on T2-weighted images, with moderate fascia enhancement after contrast administration.
