Saethre-Chotzen Syndrome (SCS) is a congenital condition, primarily characterized by craniosynostosis, which is the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures leading to an abnormal head shape. It also involves facial asymmetries, ptosis (drooping of the upper eyelid), and limb abnormalities. This condition is caused by mutations in the FGFR2 (Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor […]

Symptoms and Testing information for TUBB2B Gene Polymicrogyria Asymmetric Genetic Test
Polymicrogyria is a condition characterized by abnormal development of the brain before birth. The surface of the brain normally has many ridges or folds, called gyri. In polymicrogyria, the brain develops too many folds, and these folds are unusually small. The TUBB2B gene plays a significant role in this condition, particularly in cases of asymmetric […]
Symptoms and Testing information for ADGRG1 Gene Polymicrogyria Bilateral Frontoparietal Genetic Test
Polymicrogyria is a condition characterized by abnormal development of the brain before birth. The surface of the brain normally has many ridges or folds, called gyri. In polymicrogyria, the brain develops too many folds, and these folds are unusually small. The ADGRG1 gene has been identified as one of the genetic contributors to polymicrogyria, specifically […]
Symptoms and Testing information for NR2E1 Gene Polymicrogyria Bilateral Occipital Genetic Test
Polymicrogyria (PMG) is a condition characterized by abnormal development of the brain before birth. The cerebral cortex, which is the brain’s outer layer responsible for many of its complex functions, develops too many small folds and fails to develop its normal grooves. One specific type of this condition, which involves the NR2E1 gene, leads to […]
