Test Overview & Methodology
This CFTR gene sequencing test identifies pathogenic variants linked to congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), providing definitive molecular diagnosis for male infertility and informing reproductive options. The test uses high-resolution next-generation sequencing to cover the entire CFTR coding region and intronic boundaries, detecting single nucleotide variants, small insertions/deletions, and known pathogenic mutations.
| Aspect | Our CBAVD NGS Test | Closest Alternative (Sanger Sequencing Panel) |

| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) โ full gene coverage | Sanger sequencing of select exons |
| Analytical Sensitivity | 99.9% (detects rare variants) | ~97% (limited to known mutations) |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 Weeks | 6 to 8 Weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
โAs a consultant in medical genetics, I emphasize that this NGS test for CFTR mutations provides definitive diagnostic clarity for men with CBAVD. However, results must always be interpreted alongside a comprehensive clinical and family history, followed by genetic counseling. This test is not a substitute for a full fertility workup.โ

- If you experience sudden severe scrotal pain, testicular swelling, high fever, or signs of infection after sample collection, seek emergency medical attention immediately.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the purpose of the CFTR CBAVD NGS test?
This advanced genomic test detects CFTR mutations causing congenital absence of vas deferens, confirming male infertility etiology and guiding assisted reproduction decisions. It is a key component of a complete fertility evaluation in men with suspected obstructive azoospermia.
2. How accurate is the NGS methodology for CFTR analysis?
With 99.9% analytical sensitivity, our ISO-certified NGS identifies even rare variants missed by older sequencing methods. The test covers the entire CFTR gene, including intronic regions, minimizing false negatives.
3. Is home blood collection available in Dubai and Abu Dhabi?
We provide VIP Mobile Phlebotomy & Temperature-Controlled Cold-Chain Home Collection across all UAE emirates, available daily from 8 AM to 11 PM, performed by DHA-licensed phlebotomists. Home collection is suitable for standard blood draws; no invasive sample retrieval is required.
