Test Overview & Methodology
This Next‑Generation Sequencing (NGS) test analyzes the entire LPIN2 gene to identify pathogenic mutations causing Majeed syndrome – a rare autoinflammatory disorder affecting bone (chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis), skin (inflammatory dermatosis), and blood (congenital dyserythropoietic anemia).
| Feature | Our Test (NGS) | Closest Alternative (Single‑Gene Sanger) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Full‑gene coverage, detects SNVs, indels, and CNVs with >99.9% analytical sensitivity | Limited to known point mutations; misses large deletions/duplications |
| Methodology | Next‑Generation Sequencing (Illumina platform) with bioinformatic validation | Sanger sequencing of individual exons |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 weeks | 4–6 weeks (often with sequential testing) |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“This molecular diagnosis provides definitive confirmation of Majeed syndrome; however, interpretation must be integrated with clinical findings, imaging, and laboratory markers. I strongly recommend pre‑ and post‑test genetic counselling to help families understand the autosomal recessive inheritance and reproductive options. Our multidisciplinary team is here to support you at every step.”

Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags
- Exclusion Criteria: Insufficient or degraded DNA sample; collection on expired FTA card; active hemolysis interfering with extraction.
- Exclusion Criteria: Inability to provide informed consent (for minors, legal guardian consent mandatory under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability).
- Red Flags for Urgent Care: Sudden severe bone pain, high fever (>39°C), pallor with dizziness, or any acute worsening of anemia – seek immediate medical attention.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is Majeed syndrome and how does this test help?
Answer: Majeed syndrome is a rare autoinflammatory disorder caused by LPIN2 mutations. This NGS test confirms the genetic diagnosis by sequencing the entire gene, allowing precise identification of pathogenic variants, carrier screening for family members, and informed management planning.
2. What sample types are accepted for this test?
Answer: We accept whole blood (EDTA), extracted DNA, or a single drop of blood on an FTA card. For convenience, our VIP mobile phlebotomy service collects blood at your home under cold‑chain protocols.
3. How long do results take, and what support is provided?
Answer: Turnaround time is 3–4 weeks. You will receive a complimentary telephonic post‑test genetic counselling session to explain the findings, implications for family planning, and potential therapies.
