Asking For Someone else, Sister, Female, 26 Years old, pakistan

My sister conceived via IUI. Married to first cousin. Gave birth to a girl who was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy. Genetic report revealed three mutations. She died after three months. There is no history of cardiomyopathy in our family, neither of her parents have it. My question is will there be a risk for there future child?

In these cases, the recurrence risk in siblings of an affected individual, when neither parent is affected, is in the range of 1%-6%. If more than one sibling is affected, the recurrence risk can increase to 10%.
