Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Molecular autopsy represents an efficient tool to save the diagnosis in up to one-third of sudden unexplained death (SUD). A defined gene panel is usually used for the examination. Alternatively, it is possible to carry out a comprehensive genetic assessment (whole exome sequencing, WES), which also identifies rare, previously unknown variants. The disadvantage is that a dramatic number of variants...
