Physician Insight & Safety Protocols

A Note from Consultant Medical Genetics Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh (DHA Registration ID: 9294403):

"The XRCC2 assay offers profound insights into inherited bone marrow failure, yet no single test replaces a thorough clinical evaluation. I urge every patient to interpret these findings alongside a complete blood count, physical exam, and family pedigree. Always maintain your prescribed regimen and share all results with your treating physician."

Medication Advisory

🚨 Do Not Discontinue Prescribed Medications

Do not discontinue any prescribed medication (e.g., androgens, G‑CSF, or transfusions) without direct instruction from your consultant. Stopping treatment abruptly can precipitate severe marrow failure. Always consult your treating physician before making any changes.

Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags

Exclusion: Testing cannot proceed without a completed clinical history form and, for minors, legally mandated parental consent in accordance with Federal Decree‑Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability.
Exclusion: Specimens that do not meet cold‑chain requirements or are collected on expired FTA cards will be rejected.
Emergency: If you develop sudden, unexplained bruising, severe fatigue, shortness of breath, or recurrent infections, seek immediate medical attention at the nearest emergency department—these may signal acute bone marrow failure.

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance

1. What is the XRCC2 Fanconi anemia test and who should consider it?

The XRCC2 NGS test detects pathogenic variants in the XRCC2 gene that cause Fanconi anemia, a hereditary bone marrow failure syndrome. It is recommended for individuals with unexplained cytopenias, a family history of Fanconi anemia, or prior inconclusive genetic screenings. Hematologists, oncologists, and genetic counselors use this test to confirm diagnosis, assess cancer predisposition, and guide family planning.

2. How accurate and fast is the test and what does the price include?

The test delivers >99.9% analytical sensitivity and specificity with results returned in 3 to 4 weeks. The 2800 AED fee covers the full sequencing and bioinformatic interpretation, a pre‑test genetic counselling session, home or clinic sample collection, and a post‑tele‑consultation with a DHA‑licensed Consultant Medical Genetics to explain your report.

3. What do I need to prepare before giving a sample?

You must provide a detailed personal and family clinical history and attend a genetic counseling session to draw a pedigree chart. No fasting is required. The sample can be whole blood, extracted DNA, or a single drop of blood on an FTA card. Our phlebotomist will ensure proper collection and cold‑chain transport. Any medications or transfusions should be documented but not stopped without medical advice.

4. How do I book the test and receive my results?

Book directly via WhatsApp at +971 54 548 8731 or through your physician. Once your sample is collected, results are delivered securely via email or patient portal within 3–4 weeks. A complimentary follow-up consultation with Consultant Medical Genetics Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh is included to review your report.
