Pediheart Podcast # 97: The Genetics Of LV Non-Compaction

Cardiogenetics is the topic this week as we review a relatively recent report on the topic of LV non-compaction. How often do patients with this finding have positive genetic findings? Who deserves genetic testing with this finding? Should all such patients be seen by a geneticist? How frequently should phenotype positive, genotype negative patients 'check in' with a geneticist? These are amongst the questions we review with famed cardiogeneticist and senior author, Professor Stephanie Ware of Indiana University. doi: 10.1161/CIRCGENETICS.117.001735
