We report 9 new mutations in German patients presenting with classical Marfan syndrome. All mutations occur in exons with calcium-binding (cb) epidermal growth factor-like (EGF) domains. Five mutations are missense involving exons 12, 27, 30, 44, and 52 with the resultant substitution of cysteine by

## Communicated by Jurgen Horst Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal-dominant disorder of the fibrous connective tissue that is typically caused by mutations in the gene coding for fibrillin-1 (FBN1), a major component of extracellular microfibrils. The clinical spectrum of MFS is highly variable
