Test Overview & Methodology
This Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis targets the COLEC11 gene to definitively diagnose 3MC syndrome type 2, a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterised by craniofacial dysmorphism, cleft palate, and immunological abnormalities. Designed for paediatric, dermatological, and genetic consultations, the test provides actionable results within 3–4 weeks.

| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 6–8 Weeks |
| Price | 2800 AED | ~5000 AED |
| DHA-Accredited Report | Yes | Varies |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“This targeted test removes diagnostic uncertainty for families facing 3MC syndrome. I always interpret results alongside clinical findings, because even a negative result should be considered in the context of the patient’s full presentation.” — Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics, DHA Registration ID: 9294403.
Clinical Advisory
⚠️ Do not discontinue any prescribed medication or treatment without consulting your treating physician. This test is for diagnostic and counselling purposes only and does not replace ongoing medical care. All clinical procedures adhere to Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- This test is not suitable for emergency prenatal diagnosis; acute foetal distress requires immediate obstetric care.
- Patients with active severe coagulopathy should consult their doctor before blood collection.
- If the child exhibits acute respiratory distress, severe feeding difficulties, or signs of sepsis, seek emergency medical attention immediately—genetic testing is for elective work-up only.
- Home collection may be deferred for patients with unstable vital signs; hospital-based phlebotomy is recommended in such cases.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the COLEC11 gene test for 3MC syndrome type 2?
The COLEC11 gene NGS test definitively diagnoses 3MC syndrome type 2, a rare genetic disorder. It identifies pathogenic variants in the COLEC11 gene, enabling precise clinical management, carrier screening, and family planning. The test is performed on DNA extracted from blood or a dried blood spot.
2. What sample is required for this genetic test?
The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on FTA card. Our cold-chain logistics team collects the specimen at your home, office, or our partner hospital, ensuring sample integrity from vein to lab.
3. How long do results take and who interprets them?
Results arrive in 3-4 weeks with a comprehensive interpretation by our expert clinical geneticist team. A post-test teleconsultation is included to explain findings in plain language and discuss next steps with your primary doctor.
