Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of mutations in the ELN gene associated with Supravalvar Aortic Stenosis. A positive result confirms a genetic cause, while a negative result does not entirely rule out SVAS due to other potential genetic or non-genetic factors.
📊

Positive for pathogenic ELN mutation

Confirms genetic diagnosis of SVAS; recommend cardiac evaluation and genetic counseling.

📊

Negative for ELN mutation

ELN gene mutation not detected; consider other genetic or clinical causes for symptoms.

📊

Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)

Further testing and family studies may be needed for clarification.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a doctor if you experience symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, or fainting, or if you have a family history of SVAS. After receiving test results, seek genetic counseling for personalized management.

Limitations

  • May not detect all possible ELN gene mutations or variants
  • Results require interpretation by a genetic specialist
  • Does not replace clinical diagnosis or other cardiac evaluations

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
  • Psychological impact of genetic results; counseling recommended

Interfering Factors

  • Poor sample quality or insufficient DNA quantity
  • Contamination during sample collection or processing
  • Recent blood transfusions may affect DNA analysis

Who should consider this test?
Individuals with symptoms of SVAS, such as chest pain or shortness of breath, or those with a family history of the condition.
How is the test performed?
A blood sample is collected and analyzed using NGS technology to detect ELN gene mutations.
Is fasting required before the test?
No, fasting is not required for this genetic test.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available in 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What do the results mean?
Results indicate if an ELN gene mutation is present, which can confirm a genetic diagnosis of SVAS and guide treatment.
Is the test painful?
