Reclassification of DMD Duplications as Benign: Recommendations for Cautious Interpretation of Variants Identified in Prenatal Screening
28 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
Duplications are the main type of dystrophin gene (DMD) variants, which typically cause dystrophinopathies such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy. Maternally inherited exon duplication in DMD in fetuses is a relatively common finding of genetic screening in clinical practice. However, there is no standard strategy for interpretation of the pathogenicity of DMD duplications during...
