Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic mutations in the LRRC6 gene associated with PCD Type 19.
📊

Pathogenic variant detected

Confirms diagnosis of PCD Type 19; genetic counseling recommended.

📊

No pathogenic variant detected

PCD Type 19 unlikely based on this gene, but clinical correlation and further testing may be needed.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If symptoms persist, family history of PCD, or results indicate mutations, consult a geneticist or pulmonologist.

Limitations

  • ⚠May not detect all possible mutations
  • ⚠Requires genetic counseling for interpretation
  • ⚠Results should be correlated with clinical findings

Risks & Considerations

  • ●Minimal risk from blood draw (bruising, infection)
  • ●Genetic implications for family members

Interfering Factors

  • ●Sample contamination
  • ●Degraded DNA
