Abstract
The WES findings led us to identify reported as well as novel variants for the first time in Indian patients with CMD and CM. This allowed us to achieve an accurate genetic diagnosis, which was difficult using conventional diagnostic tools. Transferring these WES findings to clinical practice will help guide clinical care of the affected patients and inform genetic counselling.
