Test Overview
This next-generation sequencing (NGS) test analyses the entire SLC12A6 gene to detect pathogenic variants causing agenesis of the corpus callosum with peripheral neuropathy (Andermann syndrome). The test provides definitive molecular diagnosis for patients with neurological symptoms and guides family risk assessment. يكشف هذا التحليل الطفرات المسببة لغياب الجسم الثفني مع الاعتلال العصبي المحيطي.

Physician Insight & Clinical Correlation
“A positive result in the SLC12A6 gene confirms Andermann syndrome, but clinical correlation with MRI findings and neurophysiology is essential. Even a negative result does not exclude other genetic neuropathies; thus, further evaluation is often warranted. Always integrate results with the patient’s full clinical picture.” — Dr. Prabhakar Reddy (DHA License: 61713011)
⚠️ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your physician. This test is not a substitute for a comprehensive neurological evaluation.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags
- Patients with acute illness or fever should postpone collection.
- Severe anemia or coagulation disorders require physician approval for blood draw.
- Pediatric testing (<18 years) mandates documented parental consent per UAE Child Protection Law (Federal Law No. 3 of 2016, 2026 amendments).
- Emergency red flags: Sudden loss of consciousness, respiratory distress, or seizures — seek immediate medical care; do not wait for genetic test results.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What does the SLC12A6 genetic test detect and who should consider it?
This advanced NGS test identifies pathogenic variants in the SLC12A6 gene responsible for agenesis of the corpus callosum with peripheral neuropathy. It is indicated for patients with partial or complete ACC, progressive axonal neuropathy, or a family history suggestive of Andermann syndrome. يكشف هذا التحليل الطفرات المسببة لمرض غياب الجسم الثفني مع اعتلال الأعصاب المحيطي، ويوصى به للمرضى الذين يعانون من أعراض عصبية مميزة.
How is the test performed and what is the turnaround time?
We collect a simple blood sample via our VIP home phlebotomy service; DNA is extracted and analysed using high-depth NGS technology. Results are typically available in 25–28 days, accompanied by a comprehensive clinical report. يتم سحب عينة دم في المنزل وتحليلها بتقنية التسلسل الجيني المتقدم، وتظهر النتائج خلال 25 إلى 28 يوماً.
Is genetic counselling required before the test?
Absolutely; a mandatory pre- genetic counselling session is included to draw a detailed pedigree chart and ensure informed consent, aligning with UAE Medical Liability Law Article 87 and PDPL data privacy standards. جلسة استشارة وراثية إلزامية قبل الاختبار لرسم شجرة العائلة وضمان الموافقة المستنيرة وفقاً للقانون الاتحادي.
