Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the BBS7 Gene Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by BBS7 Gene Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene BBS7.
Test Details
The BBS7 gene is associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7 (BBS7), a rare genetic disorder characterized by symptoms such as obesity, retinal degeneration, kidney abnormalities, intellectual disability, and polydactyly (extra fingers or toes).
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a powerful tool that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. In the case of BBS7, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or variations in the BBS7 gene, which may be responsible for the development of Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7.
NGS genetic testing provides valuable information for diagnosis, prognosis, and genetic counseling. It can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal testing in families with a known BBS7 mutation. However, it is important to note that NGS genetic testing should be performed by specialized laboratories and ordered and interpreted by healthcare professionals with expertise in genetics.
Genetic counseling is highly recommended both before and after genetic testing to ensure individuals and families fully understand the implications of the test results.

The BBS7 gene is associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7 (BBS7), which is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a variety of symptoms including obesity, retinal degeneration, kidney abnormalities, intellectual disability, and polydactyly (extra fingers or toes). NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of BBS7, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the BBS7 gene that may be responsible for the development of Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7. NGS genetic testing can provide valuable information for diagnosis, prognosis, and genetic counseling for individuals suspected of having or being at risk for Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 7. It can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal testing in families with a known BBS7 mutation. It’s important to note that NGS genetic testing is typically performed by specialized laboratories and should be ordered and interpreted by healthcare professionals with expertise in genetics. Genetic counseling is also recommended before and after genetic testing to help individuals and families understand the implications of the test results. |
