Understanding Kenny-Caffey Syndrome: Your Path to Genetic Clarity
When skeletal abnormalities and growth concerns affect your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our FAM111A gene test provides the definitive answers you need to understand Kenny-Caffey Syndrome Type 2 – a rare genetic condition that impacts bone development and overall health. We understand the emotional weight of genetic testing, which is why we’ve created a compassionate, professional testing experience that prioritises your peace of mind.
What This Test Reveals About Your Genetic Health
The FAM111A gene test uses cutting-edge Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify specific mutations in the FAM111A gene that cause Kenny-Caffey Syndrome Type 2. This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive genetic investigation that examines your DNA at the most detailed level, providing unmatched accuracy in detecting the genetic variations responsible for this skeletal disorder.
Unlike basic genetic screens, our NGS approach analyses the entire FAM111A gene sequence, ensuring no potential mutation goes undetected. This thorough examination gives you and your healthcare team the complete picture needed for accurate diagnosis and personalised management strategies.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained short stature or growth delays in childhood
- Dental abnormalities or delayed tooth eruption
- Thickened bones visible on X-rays
- Eye abnormalities including cataracts or vision problems
- Family history of similar skeletal or growth issues
- Unexplained hypocalcaemia (low calcium levels)
If you’re planning a family and have concerns about genetic inheritance, this test provides crucial information for informed family planning decisions.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Health
Getting tested for Kenny-Caffey Syndrome Type 2 offers profound benefits that extend beyond diagnosis:
