Ensembl Get Structural Variants

Get structural variants overlapping a genomic region from Ensembl. Returns known SVs from DGVa (Database of Genomic Variants archive), ClinGen, and other sources. Each SV includes its ID (nsv/esv accession), coordinates, and feature type. Use ensembl_get_sv_detail to get clinical significance, variant class (CNV, deletion, duplication, inversion), and supporting evidence for specific variants. Region must be < 5Mb.
