ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction to the ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test
The ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test is an advanced diagnostic tool designed to identify genetic factors associated with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). VUR is a condition where urine flows backward from the bladder to the kidneys, potentially leading to serious complications such as kidney damage and urinary tract infections. This test employs Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the ROBO2 gene, which has been linked to the development of VUR.
What the Test Measures
This genetic test specifically measures variations in the ROBO2 gene that may contribute to the risk of developing vesicoureteral reflux type 2. By identifying these genetic markers, healthcare providers can better understand a patient’s predisposition to this condition.
Who Should Consider This Test?
The ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test is recommended for:
- Individuals with a family history of vesicoureteral reflux or related urinary disorders.
- Patients experiencing recurrent urinary tract infections or kidney problems.
- Those with symptoms indicative of VUR, such as unexplained fever or abdominal pain.
Benefits of Taking the Test
Taking the ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 test offers several benefits:
- Early identification of genetic predispositions, allowing for proactive management.
- Informed decision-making regarding treatment options based on genetic insights.
- Guidance for family planning and understanding hereditary risks.
Understanding Your Results
Once the test is completed, results will indicate whether any genetic variations associated with ROBO2 and VUR are present. It is essential to discuss these results with a qualified healthcare provider to understand their implications fully and to determine the best course of action based on your unique genetic profile.

Pre-Test Instructions
Prior to the test, a clinical history of the patient is necessary. A genetic counseling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by conditions related to the ROBO2 gene.
Sample Type and Turnaround Time
The test requires a sample type of either blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card. Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks.
