BACKGROUND: Mutations in the cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYBPC3) gene are frequently found as a cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, only a few studies have analysed genotype-phenotype correlations in small series of patients. The present study sought to determine the clinical characteristics, penetrance and prognosis of HCM with an identical mutation in MYBPC3. METHODS: 154 non-related...
