Robbie McCutcheon

Robbie McCutcheon was in the hospital trying to pass a kidney stone when he was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy.

Kidney Stone
Robbie was in the hospital, trying to pass a large kidney stone. Because of its size, Dr. Bailey scheduled surgery to remove it. However, he began having runs of VTach, so a cardio consult was called. Dr. Pierce discovered that he had cardiomyopathy, so he needed cardiac anesthesia for his surgery.

Cardiomyopathy
Searching for a cause for the cardiomyopathy, Dr. Pierce had Dr. Bailey map his genome. The map revealed the RAF 1 mutation, which had been discovered to cause cardiomyopathy only a week before.

Notes and Trivia

 * He was 22 at the time of his hospitalization.
 * The discovery of his mutation led to diagnoses for Frankie, Link, and Ivy McNeil.
