A genetic and developmental biological approach for a family with complex congenital heart diseases—evidence of digenic inheritance

Abstract excerpt

Objective Congenital heart disease (CHD) is caused by cardiovascular developmental defects and has a global prevalence of ∼1%. The etiology of CHD is multifactorial and remains generally unknown, despite advances in analytical techniques based on next-generation sequencing (NGS). The aim of our study was to elucidate the multi-genetic origin and pathogenesis of an intriguing familial case with complex CHD....
