Abstract excerpt
Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in genes implicated in thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) present clinical challenges due to ambiguous pathogenicity and low patient representation. This study investigates the pathogenic potential of missense VUS in the ROBO4 gene, previously associated with vascular integrity and ascending aortic aneurysm. Clinical and genetic data from five patients with heterozygous ROBO4...
