Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic mutations in the ATIC gene. Positive results confirm diagnosis, while negative results may require further clinical evaluation.
📊

Pathogenic ATIC gene mutation detected, confirming AICA-ribosiduria due to ATIC deficiency

Result type: Positive

📊

No pathogenic mutations detected; consider other genetic or metabolic causes

Result type: Negative

📊

Genetic variant identified but clinical significance unclear; recommend genetic counseling

Result type: Variant of Uncertain Significance

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If symptoms suggestive of AICA-ribosiduria are present, or for family planning if a mutation is identified in a relative.
