Overview

The purpose of this test is to confirm a clinical diagnosis of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia by identifying disease-causing mutations in the FGFR1 gene. It aids in differentiating this condition from other skeletal dysplasias, provides information for genetic counseling, and helps in assessing recurrence risks for families.

After the Test:You can resume normal activities immediately. Results are typically available in 3-4 weeks.

About This Test

Who Should Get This Test

The purpose of this test is to confirm a clinical diagnosis of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia by identifying disease-causing mutations in the FGFR1 gene. It aids in differentiating this condition from other skeletal dysplasias, provides information for genetic counseling, and helps in assessing recurrence risks for families.

How to Prepare

  • For blood sample: Use EDTA vacutainer, mix gently to prevent clotting.
  • For FTA card: Apply one drop of blood onto the card, air dry for 30 minutes.
  • Label the sample with patient's name and date of birth.
  • Ship at room temperature in a sealed biohazard bag.

Understanding Your Results

The test result will indicate whether a pathogenic variant in the FGFR1 gene is present. A positive result confirms the diagnosis of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia. A negative result does not completely rule out the condition, as mutations may be in other genes or undetectable by this method.
📊

Positive (Pathogenic variant detected)

Confirms diagnosis of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia. Genetic counseling is recommended for family members.

📊

Negative (No pathogenic variant detected)

Does not confirm the diagnosis. Further evaluation may be needed.

📊

Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)

A variant was found but its clinical significance is unknown. Additional testing may be required.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you or your child have symptoms suggestive of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia, or if there is a family history, consult a clinical geneticist or pediatrician for evaluation and testing.

Limitations

  • This test detects mutations in the FGFR1 gene only; other genes may be involved in similar phenotypes.
  • Large deletions/duplications may not be detected by standard NGS; additional testing may be required.
  • Variant of uncertain significance (VUS) may require further family studies.
  • Test does not assess non-genetic causes of skeletal dysplasia.

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk of bruising at the blood draw site
  • Slight discomfort during venipuncture
  • Psychological impact of genetic results

Interfering Factors

  • Contaminated or degraded DNA sample
  • Insufficient sample quantity
  • Presence of maternal cell contamination in prenatal samples
  • Recent blood transfusion (may dilute DNA)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Osteoglophonic Dysplasia?
Osteoglophonic dysplasia is a rare genetic disorder affecting bone development, caused by mutations in the FGFR1 gene. It leads to abnormal skull and facial bone growth, short stature, and other skeletal issues.
How is the FGFR1 gene test performed?
The test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to analyze the FGFR1 gene for mutations. A blood sample or extracted DNA is required.
What is the cost of the FGFR1 Osteoglophonic Dysplasia NGS test?
The test costs INR 20000 at DNA Labs India, which includes genetic counseling and home sample collection.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after the sample is received.
Is fasting required before the test?
No, fasting is not required for this genetic test.
What sample types are accepted?
We accept blood (EDTA), extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Can the test be done at home?
Yes, we offer free home sample collection for online bookings across many cities in India.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result indicates a pathogenic mutation in the FGFR1 gene, confirming the diagnosis of Osteoglophonic Dysplasia.
What if the result is negative?
A negative result does not completely rule out the condition. Further genetic testing may be recommended.
Is genetic counseling included?
Yes, a genetic counseling session is included to discuss the implications of the test and results.
