Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis Caused by a Familial Chromosome 7 Inversion Disrupting the ELN Gene Uncovered by Whole-Genome Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Apparently, balanced chromosomal rearrangements usually have no phenotypic consequences for the carrier. However, in some cases, they may be associated with an abnormal phenotype. We report herein the case of a 4-year-old boy presenting with clinically isolated supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS). No chromosomal imbalance was detected by array CGH. The karyotype showed a balanced paracentric chromosome 7 inversion. Breakpoint characterization using paired-end whole-genome sequencing (WGS) revealed an ELN gene disruption in intron 1, accounting for the phenotype. Family study showed that the inversion was inherited, with incomplete penetrance. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a disruption of the ELN gene characterized by WGS. It contributes to refine the genotype-phenotype correlation in ELN disruption. Although this disruption is a rare etiology of SVAS, it cannot be detected by the diagnostic tests usually performed, such as array CGH or sequencing methods (Sanger, panel, or exome sequencing). With the future perspective of WGS as a diagnostic tool, it will be important to include a structural variation analysis in order to detect balanced rearrangements and gene disruption.

Project description:ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to identify the prevalence and anatomic characteristics of coronary artery lesions and their associated postoperative risk in patients undergoing supravalvular aortic stenosis repair.MethodsThe association between structural risk factors, postoperative ST-segment changes, and major adverse cardiac events was explored using logistic regression and the Fisher's exact test.ResultsIn 51 consecutive patients with supravalvular aortic stenosis treated between 2000 and 2017, a total of 48 coronary lesions were identified in 27 patients (53%). Prominent ostial ridge (type I) was the most common coronary lesion, followed by small ostium with (IIIb) or without (IIIa) diffuse long-segment coronary narrowing, and adhesion of the coronary cusp (type II). There were 54 concomitant coronary procedures, including 43 primary corrections and 11 revisions. Thirty-three patients underwent supravalvular aortic stenosis repair with a bifurcated patch, of which 13 (39.4%) had right coronary artery distortion/kinking requiring patch plication (n = 8) and reimplantation (n = 5). Postoperative major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred in 9 patients (17.6%), including 3 deaths, 4 needing mechanical circulatory support, and 6 experiencing ventricular arrhythmias. Twenty-two patients (43.1%) had postoperative ST-segment changes, including 13 early changes that resolved within 24 h and 9 persistent changes lasting >24 h. Patients with type III lesions were associated with postoperative persistent ST-segment change (P = 0.04) and these lesions independently predicted postoperative MACE (P = 0.02). Patients with pre-existing coronary lesions were at elevated risk of right coronary artery distortion/kinking (P = 0.045).ConclusionsThe prevalence of ST-segment changes and MACE is high in patients undergoing supravalvular aortic stenosis repair. The preoperative presence of complex coronary lesions is the most important predictor for postoperative major adverse cardiac events.
