L1CAM Gene Hydrocephalus with Aqueductal Stenosis and Congenital Intestinal Pseudoobstruction
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer a comprehensive genetic test for L1CAM Gene Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction. This test helps in diagnosing and understanding the symptoms associated with these conditions. The cost of the test is AED 4400.0.
Test Details
The L1CAM gene is associated with several genetic disorders, including hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction. Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis is characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, leading to increased pressure and potential damage. Aqueductal stenosis refers to the narrowing or blockage of the cerebral aqueduct, which hinders the flow of cerebrospinal fluid between the brain’s ventricles. Congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction is a condition characterized by impaired movement of the intestines, resulting in symptoms similar to those of a mechanical bowel obstruction.
NGS Technology
We utilize Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology for this genetic test. NGS allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. It uses high-throughput sequencing technology to rapidly generate large amounts of genetic data. In the context of hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or variations in the L1CAM gene that may be responsible for these conditions.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the L1CAM Gene Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by these conditions.
Report Delivery
The report for the L1CAM Gene Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction Genetic Test is typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Department and Doctor
This test is conducted by our Genetics department and is overseen by a Neurologist.
Conclusion
NGS genetic testing for L1CAM Gene Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction is essential for providing a definitive diagnosis. It aids in treatment decisions, genetic counseling, and family planning. At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services to assist in the management of these conditions.

Test Details |
The L1CAM gene is associated with several genetic disorders, including hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction. Hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, leading to increased pressure and potential damage. Aqueductal stenosis refers to the narrowing or blockage of the cerebral aqueduct, a channel that allows cerebrospinal fluid to flow between the brain’s ventricles. Congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction is a condition characterized by impaired movement of the intestines, leading to symptoms similar to those of a mechanical bowel obstruction. However, in this condition, there is no physical blockage present. Instead, the muscles of the intestines do not function properly, causing a lack of peristalsis and resulting in symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, and constipation. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. It uses high-throughput sequencing technology to rapidly generate large amounts of genetic data. In the context of hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the L1CAM gene that may be responsible for these conditions. By identifying specific genetic changes in the L1CAM gene, NGS testing can provide a definitive diagnosis for individuals with hydrocephalus with aqueductal stenosis and congenital intestinal pseudoobstruction. This information can be crucial for guiding treatment decisions, providing genetic counseling, and informing family planning. |
