A case report of a Chinese patient with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy harboring rare variants in both the MYBPC3 and DSP genes.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents the most prevalent form of hereditary cardiomyopathy, and mutation in the cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYBPC3) gene have been identified as a major contributor to the pathogenesis of HCM. While the desmoplakin (DSP) gene is primarily associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), its role in HCM has been less frequently documented. This case report describes a Chinese patient with obstructive HCM harboring rare variants in both the MYBPC3 and DSP genes. These findings provide valuable insights for future investigations into the genetic underpinnings and disease associations.
