Test Overview & Methodology
The Immunohistochemistry IgG (Polyclonal) Test detects polyclonal IgG deposits in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue, aiding the diagnosis of autoimmune kidney and skin diseases such as IgG4-related disease. This DHA-compliant test uses ISO-certified automated IHC with polymer detection to deliver precise, localized immune complex visualization. The permanent archival slide allows retrospective review and second opinions.
| Feature | Our Test: IHC IgG (Polyclonal) | Closest Alternative: Direct Immunofluorescence (IF) IgG |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | High specificity & permanent archival slide; automated quantification | High sensitivity but requires fresh frozen tissue; no permanent record |
| Methodology | ISO-certified automated IHC with polymer detection | Manual immunofluorescence on frozen sections |
| Turnaround Time | 5–7 working days (fixed tissue) | 3–5 working days (frozen) |
| Sample Stability | Room-temperature formalin-fixed tissue, no cold chain required | Immediate frozen transport, cold chain mandatory |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“A positive IgG polyclonal stain must be correlated with clinical history and other laboratory markers to confirm diagnoses like IgG4-related disease. Never rely solely on IHC results; a multidisciplinary review with a pathologist is essential for accurate interpretation.” — Mr. Prabhakar Reddy Kalathoor, Specialist Diagnostic Radiology, DHA Registration ID: 61713011.
Advisory: Medication and Clinical Considerations
Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Some medications (e.g., anticoagulants) may affect biopsy procedures. Always inform your pathologist of current therapies.
Safety & Exclusion Criteria
- Biopsy specimen insufficient (less than 0.2 mm³) or necrotic – test cannot be completed.
- Patients with active severe coagulopathy must optimize clotting status prior to biopsy.
- Emergency Red Flags: If you experience severe bleeding, infection signs (fever, pus), or anaphylaxis after biopsy, seek immediate emergency care.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the IgG polyclonal test used for?
The IgG (polyclonal) test detects IgG deposits in tissue, diagnosing autoimmune kidney and skin diseases accurately. It is particularly useful for identifying IgG4-related systemic disease and immune-complex-mediated disorders. Always discuss the need for this test with your specialist.
2. How long does it take to receive test results?
Results typically ready within 5 to 7 working days after sample receipt for clinical diagnosis. Complex large resections may require an additional 2–3 days. You will be notified via SMS/WhatsApp when the report is available.
3. Is home sample collection available for this biopsy?
Hospital Extraction Only – Sample collection is conducted strictly within an accredited hospital facility; mobile home phlebotomy is disabled for safety. Once biopsy tissue is obtained, we arrange Secure Medical Courier Solid Tissue Specimen Retrieval for transport to our laboratory. Contact our team to coordinate logistics.
