Understanding Your Results

Results from the ENG Gene Telangiectasia NGS Genetic Test indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic mutations in the ENG gene. A positive result confirms HHT1, while a negative result may not rule out the condition if clinical symptoms persist.
📊

Positive

Pathogenic mutation detected in ENG gene, confirming HHT1. Genetic counseling and clinical management are recommended.

📊

Negative

No pathogenic variants detected. Consider other genetic causes or clinical evaluation if symptoms are present.

📊

Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)

A genetic variant was found, but its clinical significance is unknown. Further testing and family studies may be needed.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a doctor if you experience recurrent nosebleeds, unexplained bleeding, red spots on skin, or have a family history of HHT. Seek immediate medical attention for symptoms like severe bleeding, shortness of breath, or neurological issues.

Limitations

  • May not detect all types of mutations, such as large deletions or intronic variants
  • Results require clinical correlation and genetic counseling
  • Does not predict disease severity or progression

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
  • Psychological impact of genetic results
  • Potential for uncertain results requiring further testing

Interfering Factors

  • Contaminated or degraded DNA samples
  • Recent blood transfusions
  • Improper sample storage
