Whole-exome sequencing revealed a likely pathogenic variant in NF1 causing neurofibromatosis type I and Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Abstract Background Neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) is a genetic disorder characterized by the tumor’s development in nerve tissue. Complications of NF1 can include pigmented lesions, skin neurofibromas, and heart problems such as cardiomyopathy. In this study, we performed whole-exome sequencing (WE...
