Familial cardiomyopathy caused by a novel heterozygous mutation in the gene LMNA (c.1434dupG): a cardiac MRI-augmented segregation study

In a five-generation family carrying a novel frameshift LMNA variant (c.1434dupG, p.Leu479AlafsX72), imaging-augmented segregation analysis supports its association with lamin heart disease. Affected members exhibit conduction abnormalities, supraventricular and ventricular arrythmias, dilated cardi...

Sumario:In a five-generation family carrying a novel frameshift LMNA variant (c.1434dupG, p.Leu479AlafsX72), imaging-augmented segregation analysis supports its association with lamin heart disease. Affected members exhibit conduction abnormalities, supraventricular and ventricular arrythmias, dilated cardiomyopathy with non-infarct pattern midwall septal fibrosis, heart failure and thromboembolic complications.
