Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous disorder. Despite the increasing number of identified causative genes, 20-30% of patients still lack a genetic diagnosis. To date, genetic analyses have primarily focused on single nucleotide variants (SNVs). In this study, we evaluated whether the detection of copy number variants (CNVs) improves the diagnostic yield in our large...
