TMEM67 Gene COACH Syndrome Genetic Test
COACH syndrome is a rare genetic disorder associated with the TMEM67 gene. This syndrome is characterized by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, oligophrenia (intellectual disability), ataxia (lack of muscle coordination), coloboma (a congenital defect of the eye), and hepatic fibrosis (scarring of the liver).

Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the TMEM67 Gene COACH syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with TMEM67 Gene COACH syndrome.
Test Details
NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that utilizes advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of COACH syndrome, NGS can identify mutations in the TMEM67 gene associated with the disorder. This test is beneficial for individuals displaying symptoms consistent with COACH syndrome, as well as family members who may be at risk of inheriting the condition.
Genetic testing for COACH syndrome provides crucial information about an individual’s risk of developing the disorder, guiding medical management and treatment decisions. It also offers valuable insights for family planning and genetic counseling.

The TMEM67 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called COACH syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, oligophrenia (intellectual disability), ataxia (lack of muscle coordination), coloboma (a congenital defect of the eye), and hepatic fibrosis (scarring of the liver). NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. NGS can be used to identify mutations in the TMEM67 gene that are associated with COACH syndrome. This test is useful for individuals who have symptoms consistent with COACH syndrome, as well as for family members who may be at risk of inheriting the condition. Genetic testing for COACH syndrome can provide important information about an individual’s risk of developing the disorder and can help guide medical management and treatment decisions. It can also provide valuable information for family planning and genetic counseling. |
