Next-generation sequencing identifies novel genes with rare variants in total anomalous pulmonary venous connectionResearch in context

Background: Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is recognized as a rare congenital heart defect (CHD). With a high mortality rate of approximately 80%, the survival rate and outcomes of TAPVC patients are not satisfactory. However, the genetic aetiology and mechanism of TAPVC remain...
