ملخص تنفيذي: يقدم هذا الفحص الجيني تحليلاً كاملاً لجين EXT1 المسؤول عن الاكسوستوزات الوراثية، بدقة تشخيصية تصل إلى 99.9٪ وفق معايير هيئة الصحة بدبي، مع استشارة وراثية مجانية بعد النتيجة.
Comprehensive EXT1 Gene Analysis – At a Glance
This test screens for pathogenic variants in the EXT1 gene associated with Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (Type 1), using advanced NGS technology to cover all coding exons and splice junctions. It confirms clinical diagnosis, guides surgical and dermatologic surveillance, and enables accurate genetic counselling for at‑risk families.
| Feature | Our DNA Test (EXT1‑NGS) | Closest Alternative (Routine Panel) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | NGS – full gene sequencing + CNV detection | Targeted mutation analysis only |
| Method | Illumina® next‑generation sequencing with MLPA backup | Sanger sequencing of selected exons |
| Turnaround | 3‑4 weeks | 6‑8 weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
Clinical Perspective – Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA License: 61713011):
“A positive EXT1 result does not define the disease severity; osteochondromas vary widely in location and growth velocity. Always correlate with imaging and physical examination. This test is a powerful tool for early surveillance, but it must be interpreted within the full family and clinical context to avoid unnecessary anxiety.”
⚠️ MEDICATION WARNING:
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without direct consultation with your treating physician. This genetic test does not alter current medical management unless specifically advised by your specialist.
Patient Safety – Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Recent blood transfusion (≤2 weeks) may compromise germline DNA integrity – reschedule accordingly.
- Active systemic infection requiring hospitalisation – postpone until clinical stability is achieved.
- Inability to provide informed consent (patient or legal guardian).
Seek immediate emergency care if you experience: sudden, severe pain near a known osteochondroma; rapid limb swelling; or neurological deficits (weakness/numbness) – these may indicate malignant transformation or nerve compression.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
How accurate is the EXT1 NGS test for diagnosing hereditary multiple exostoses?
The achieves 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity for detecting single‑nucleotide variants and copy‑number changes across the entire EXT1 gene, which is the gold standard for confirming molecular diagnosis of Type I exostoses.
كم يستغرق الحصول على نتيجة تحليل EXT1؟
تستغرق عملية التسلسل الجيني من الجيل التالي وتحليل البيانات 3 إلى 4 أسابيع، ويتضمن ذلك جلسة استشارة وراثية مجانية بعد صدور التقرير.
Can I use a small blood spot (FTA card) instead of a full venipuncture?
Yes, a single drop of blood on an FTA card is an accepted specimen for EXT1 analysis, providing sufficient DNA for sequencing and meeting all DHA sample adequacy standards.
