FLVCR2 Gene Hydranencephaly Fowler Type NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction
The FLVCR2 Gene Hydranencephaly Fowler Type NGS Genetic DNA Test is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool used to identify genetic mutations associated with hydranencephaly, a serious neurological condition. This test is particularly important for pediatric patients, as it helps in understanding the underlying genetic factors that contribute to this disorder. By utilizing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we can provide accurate and comprehensive insights into the genetic makeup of affected individuals.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically detects mutations in the FLVCR2 gene, which has been linked to hydranencephaly Fowler type. By analyzing the genetic code, healthcare providers can determine whether a child is at risk for this condition and guide further management and interventions.
Who Should Consider This Test
The FLVCR2 Gene Hydranencephaly Fowler Type NGS Genetic DNA Test is recommended for:
- Children showing symptoms of dysmorphology, such as abnormal brain development.
- Families with a known history of hydranencephaly or other related genetic disorders.
- Patients requiring confirmation of a diagnosis for appropriate treatment and management.
Benefits of Taking the Test
Taking the FLVCR2 Gene test offers several benefits:
- Accurate diagnosis of genetic conditions that may affect a child’s development.
- Informed decision-making for families regarding treatment options and future planning.
- Access to genetic counseling services to understand the implications of test results.
Understanding Your Results
After the test is completed, results will be interpreted by a qualified geneticist. It is essential to understand that:
- Positive results indicate the presence of mutations in the FLVCR2 gene.
- Negative results suggest that no mutations were detected, but further testing may be warranted based on clinical symptoms.
- Results will guide healthcare providers in making informed decisions about patient care.

Turnaround time for results is approximately 3 to 4 weeks. Sample types accepted include blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card. Prior to testing, a clinical history and a genetic counseling session are required to create a pedigree chart of family members affected by the FLVCR2 gene.
