Abstract

Congenital heart disease (CHD) has a multifactorial aetiology, raising the possibility of an underlying genetic burden, predisposing to disease but also variable expression, including variation in disease severity, and incomplete penetrance. Using whole genome sequencing (WGS), the findings of this study, indicate that complex, critical CHD is distinct from other types of disease due to increased genetic burden in common variation, specifically among established CHD genes. Additionally, these findings highlight associations with regulatory genes and environmental "stressors" in the final presentation of disease.
