Abstract excerpt
We report the clinical presentation and genetic screening of a 31-year-old man with dilatation of the aortic root and ascending aorta and a positive family history for aortic dissection and sudden death. A novel heterozygous variant in a splice acceptor site (c.1600-1G>T) of TGFβR2 gene was identified by using a targeted multi-gene panel analysis. Bioinformatics tools predicted that the c.1600-1G>T variant is...
