- Insufficient sample volume
- Improperly labeled samples
Understanding Your Results
Pathogenic variant detected
Likely diagnosis of C7 deficiency; increased infection risk; recommend clinical evaluation.
No pathogenic variant detected
C7 deficiency unlikely; consider other causes for symptoms.
Variant of uncertain significance
Further testing and clinical correlation needed.
If symptoms of recurrent infections persist, worsen, or if family history suggests genetic risk.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all genetic variants; clinical correlation required
- ⚠Results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical history and other tests
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risks from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
- ●Genetic testing may have psychological implications
Interfering Factors
- ●Sample contamination
