Ultra-deep Error-corrected Sequencing of Peripheral Blood for Clonal Hematopoiesis in Patients Undergoing AAA Surgery

Patients undergoing elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery were enrolled to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of clonal hematopoiesis. Peripheral blood was collected at the time of surgical admission using PAXgene DNA tubes. Genomic DNA was extracted and subjected to ultra-deep error-corrected targeted sequencing using a custom gene panel covering recurrent clonal hematopoiesis-associated genes. Sequencing libraries were prepared following established protocols and sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq X system. The resulting dataset includes paired-end FASTQ files for each participant, enabling high-sensitivity detection of somatic variants down to low variant allele frequencies. This study provides a comprehensive sequencing resource for evaluating clonal hematopoiesis in AAA patients.
