Hi and welcome. One thing to add. If they tell you your aortic root is enlarged, that is an aneurysm. I wasnt told that, and 2 years went by before my cardio told me that meant I had an aneurysm. Scary because my dad had BVD and connective tissue disorder and a triple A and a brain aneurysm. So yes, people with connective tissue disorder CAN develop them elsewhere. However, with your low number I would say a dissection would be very rare to happen.
