Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multiple likely pathogenic/pathogenic (LP/P; ≥2) variants in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy were described 10 years ago with a prevalence of 5%. We sought to re-examine the significance of multiple rare variants in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the setting of comprehensive and targeted panels. METHODS AND RESULTS: Of 758 hypertrophic cardiomyopathy probands, we included 382...
