BACKGROUND: Phenotypic heterogeneity within or between families with a same deep-intronic splice-altering variant in the DMD gene has never been systematically analyzed. This study aimed to determine the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of patients with deep-intronic DMD variants. METHODS: Of 1338 male patients with a suspected dystrophinopathy, 38 were confirmed to have atypical pathogenic DMD variants via...
