Researchers identify rare genetic disease in patient, marking a first in medical science.

Massachusetts General Hospital researchers have identified a rare genetic non-coding vascular disease in patient Rithvik Kapali, marking the first discovery of its kind. Rithvik, who has faced numerous health challenges, is the only known person with this specific micro RNA mutation. This breakthrough could lead to new treatments for similar rare diseases and enhances our understanding of human genetics.
