Incidentally identified genetic variants in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy ‐associated genes among children undergoing exome sequencing reflect healthy population variation

ConclusionsIncidentally identified variants are common among pediatric WES testing with gene frequencies similar to “background” variants. Incidentally identified variants are unlikely to be pathologic.
