Objective:

To identify a genetic variant associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in a Chinese family.

Key Findings:
  • A heterozygous splice-site variant (c.1286 + 2delT) in the FHOD3 gene was identified in the proband and his family members.
Interpretation:

Limitations:
  • Further studies are required to confirm the pathogenicity of the FHOD3 variant.
  • The study is limited to a single family case.
Conclusion:

The identification of the FHOD3 variant contributes to the understanding of genetic factors in HCM.
