Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 4: A new SYNE1 mutation associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy masked by a perinatal distress-related spastic diplegia

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy could be part of a more complex syndrome like Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 4. Genetic analysis allowed to identify a de novo heterozygous missense mutation in SYNE1 gene (chr6:152665253:G > C), supporting physician to reach a correct diagnosis in patient affected by cardiomyopathy associated with a difficult clinical scenario.
