Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
No the people having Marfans syndrome are not predisposed to have anaemia.They have equal chances like the others without Marfans syndrome.Instead they have predisposition to have early onset of osteoarthritis;cataract;glaucoma;mitral valve prolapse;COPD;and aortic aneurysm etc.
Thanks
