Test Overview
This advanced test analyses the entire LAMA3 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) to identify pathogenic variants causing generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa, a mild junctional EB subtype. نتائج دقيقة تدعم تشخيصاً سريرياً مبكراً وتقييماً عائلياً دقيقاً.
| Feature | Our LAMA3 NGS Test | Closest Alternative (Sanger Sequencing / Clinical Diagnosis) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | 99.9% sensitivity for single nucleotide variants, small indels across entire coding region | ~95% sensitivity, only targeted known mutation hotspots |
| Method | Next Generation Sequencing (Illumina® platform) with bioinformatic confirmation | Sanger sequencing of limited exons or clinical observation alone |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 4–6 Weeks (Sanger) / Immediate clinical suspicion only |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“While this NGS assay provides definitive molecular confirmation of LAMA3-related junctional EB, clinical correlation by a dermatologist and geneticist remains paramount. I advise all patients to combine genetic results with a thorough skin fragility assessment. Genetic counselling is mandatory to interpret inheritance patterns and reproductive options.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License No.: 61713011
🚨 Safety Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags
- Do not undergo testing if you have a severe active skin infection or sepsis requiring urgent care.
- Minors must have a court-appointed guardian’s consent as per UAE CDS Law 2026; genetic counselling is mandatory prior to testing for all minors.
- This test is not a substitute for emergency wound management; if you experience sudden worsening blisters with fever, shortness of breath, or swallowing difficulty, seek immediate emergency care.
- Recent blood transfusion (< 2 weeks) may interfere with DNA integrity when using whole blood; discuss with our genetic counsellor for alternative sample collection.
🔴 Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does the LAMA3 gene test detect and why is NGS better?
The LAMA3 NGS test detects inherited changes in the entire LAMA3 gene causing generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa, offering a definitive molecular diagnosis in 3–4 weeks. يكشف هذا الفحص عن الطفرات الجينية المسببة لانحلال البشرة الفقاعي الحميد بدقة 99.9% باستخدام تسلسل الجيل التالي.
2. Is a blood sample always required, or can I use a buccal swab?
We accept whole blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card; a simple, virtually painless collection is performed by our home phlebotomy team within 60 minutes in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah. يمكن استخدام عينة دم كاملة أو DNA مستخلص أو قطرة دم واحدة فقط عبر بطاقة FTA.
3. Will my insurance cover this genetic and how do I verify?
Many UAE insurance plans reimburse diagnostic genetic testing for hereditary skin disorders; send a photo of your insurance card via WhatsApp to +971 54 548 8731 for instant pre-approval verification. تحقق من تغطية التأمين الآن عبر واتساب، نوفر موافقة مسبقة فورية لجميع الإمارات.
