ABSTRACT
TNNI3 is a gene that causes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). A 14-year-old girl who was diagnosed with nonobstructive HCM presented with cardiopulmonary arrest due to ventricular fibrillation. Genetic testing revealed a novel de novo heterozygous missense variant in TNNI3, NM_000363.5c.583A>T (p.Ile195Phe), which was determined to be the pathogenic variant. The patient exhibited progressive myocardial fibrosis, left ventricular remodeling, and life-threatening arrhythmias. Genetic testing within families is useful for risk stratification in pediatric HCM patients.
