Example of one of the 9 high-risk pedigrees with three individuals with rotator cuff repair recruited in which DNA was obtained and sequenced. Males are represented as squares, females as circles. Individuals with slash marks are deceased. This pedigree contains 2521 descendants from the founder pair; however, only the connecting relatives between cases are shown. There are 6 sampled and confirmed RCR cases (black circles). This pedigree has a significant excess of RCR with 6 confirmed cases compared to 2.59 expected RCR cases based on age- and sex-matched population rates (P = .048). The sequenced second cousins are indicated. There is one additional recruited RCR case as indicated. RCR, rotator cuff repair.
