Test Parameters & Specifications
Understanding Your Results
Positive (Pathogenic mutation detected)
Confirms diagnosis of Fanconi anemia type L. Clinical correlation and genetic counseling recommended.
Negative (No mutation detected)
No pathogenic variants identified in the FANCL gene. Does not completely rule out Fanconi anemia if other genes are involved.
Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)
A variant was detected but its clinical significance is unclear. Further testing or family studies may be needed.
If experiencing symptoms such as persistent fatigue, frequent infections, or physical abnormalities, or if there is a family history of Fanconi anemia, consult a healthcare provider for evaluation and possible testing.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all possible variants or mosaicism
- ⚠Requires high-quality DNA sample for accurate results
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minor bruising or pain at the puncture site
- ●Rare risk of infection or dizziness during blood draw
