Overview & Test Significance
FANCI Gene Fanconi Anemia Type I Genetic Test – this state-of-the-art assay sequences the entire coding region of the FANCI gene to detect pathogenic variants linked to Fanconi anemia type I. The test is designed for patients presenting with bone marrow failure, congenital anomalies, or carrier screening within families. Results empower precise clinical management, haematopoietic stem cell transplant decisions, and reproductive counselling.
| Aspect | Our Test (DHA-Approved) | Closest Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Technology | NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) with full gene coverage | Sanger sequencing (limited to single exon analysis) |
| Variant Resolution | Single nucleotide variants, small indels, copy number variants (via MLPA backup) | Only point mutations in selected hotspots |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 Weeks | Often 6–8 Weeks |
| Sample Flexibility | Whole Blood, Extracted DNA, or Dried Blood Spot (FTA Card) | Venous blood only |
| Regulatory Compliance | DHA/MOHAP, ISO 9001:2015, UAE PDPL, CDS Law 2026 | Often lacks local UAE accreditation |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a specialist, I stress that a genetic result is only one piece of the diagnostic puzzle. This FANCI test identifies the inherited blueprint, but the clinical picture—blood counts, physical stigmata, and family history—must be correlated to confirm Fanconi anemia and guide therapy. Never self-interpret; seek genetic counselling.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA: 61713011)
Medication Warning:
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication (e.g., androgens, corticosteroids, or supportive therapies) without consulting your treating physician. Genetic test results do not replace current clinical management.
Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags
- Acute bleeding or haemodynamic instability – seek emergency care immediately.
- Known bone marrow failure syndrome with rapidly declining counts and active infection.
- Inability to provide informed consent; genetic testing in minors requires a DHA-licensed genetic counsellor alongside legal guardian consent per CDS Law 2026.
- If the patient is under 6 months and a buccal swab is considered, an FTA card is the preferred non-invasive sample, but consultation must be led by a paediatric haematologist.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. How accurate is the FANCI gene NGS test for diagnosing Fanconi anemia type I?
With full coverage of the FANCI coding region, the NGS test achieves diagnostic sensitivity exceeding 99% for pathogenic variants, making it the gold standard for molecular confirmation. False negatives are rare if the sample is adequate, but variants in regulatory regions or deep intronic areas may not be detected. The laboratory employs a bioinformatics pipeline validated under ISO 9001:2015, and results are interpreted following ACMG guidelines.
2. What sample types are accepted and does the home collection service work for children?
We accept 3 mL of whole blood in EDTA, extracted DNA, or a single drop of blood dried on an FTA card, ensuring flexibility for paediatric and anxious patients. Our VIP mobile phlebotomy team is trained in paediatric venipuncture and can collect from minors in the presence of a legal guardian, fully compliant with the UAE CDS Law 2026. The FTA card method is especially convenient for infants, requiring only a simple finger or heel prick.
3. هل يتم مشاركة نتائج الاختبار الجيني مع جهات خارجية في الإمارات؟
نضمن سرية بياناتك الجينية تمامًا بموجب مرسوم القانون الاتحادي رقم 41 لسنة 2024 وقانون حماية البيانات الشخصية في الإمارات. لا تتم مشاركة النتائج مع أي طرف ثالث بدون موافقة خطية صريحة منك، ويتم تخزين العينات والبيانات في خوادم آمنة داخل الدولة. نقدم جلسة استشارة وراثية لفهم تقريرك قبل وبعد الفحص.
Translation: We guarantee complete confidentiality of your genetic data under Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2024 and UAE PDPL. No third-party sharing occurs without your explicit written consent; samples and data remain within the UAE. Pre- and post- genetic counselling sessions are included.
