Understanding Your Results
Positive
Pathogenic variant detected, indicating genetic cause for FSGS Type 8. Consult a nephrologist and genetic counselor.
Negative
No pathogenic variant detected. Clinical correlation and further testing may be needed.
Variant of uncertain significance
Genetic variant found but clinical significance unknown. Repeat testing or family studies recommended.
Consult a doctor if you experience symptoms of FSGS such as swelling, fatigue, or high blood pressure, or if you have a family history of kidney disease. After receiving test results, seek guidance from a nephrologist or genetic counselor.
