Understanding Your Results
Positive for TP63 mutation
Confirms diagnosis of limb-mammary syndrome. Genetic counseling and medical management recommended.
Negative for TP63 mutation
No pathogenic variant detected. Consider other genetic tests if clinical suspicion remains high.
Variant of uncertain significance
Further testing or family studies may be needed for clarification.
Consult a geneticist or pediatrician if symptoms suggestive of limb-mammary syndrome are present, or if family history indicates risk. After testing, discuss results with a healthcare provider for appropriate management.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all types of mutations, such as large deletions or duplications
- ⚠Results require interpretation by a genetic specialist
- ⚠Does not assess for other genetic conditions unless specified
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risk from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
- ●Psychological impact of genetic results; counseling recommended
Interfering Factors
- ●Sample contamination during collection or processing
- ●Degraded DNA due to improper storage or handling
