Finding Answers for Your Child’s Unexplained Symptoms
When your child experiences mysterious fevers, skin changes, or joint pain that doctors can’t explain, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our ADA2 Gene Polyarteritis Nodosa test provides the clarity you need to understand your child’s health and create an effective treatment plan.
Understanding the ADA2 Gene Test
This specialised genetic test examines the ADA2 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause childhood-onset polyarteritis nodosa. This rare autoimmune condition affects blood vessels throughout the body, leading to inflammation that can damage organs and tissues.
Unlike general autoimmune tests, our ADA2 gene test provides specific, targeted information about the exact genetic cause of your child’s symptoms, enabling precise diagnosis and personalised treatment approaches.
Is This Test Right for Your Child?
Consider this test if your child experiences:
- Unexplained recurrent fevers that don’t respond to typical treatments
- Skin rashes, nodules, or livedo reticularis (mottled skin pattern)
- Joint pain, swelling, or muscle weakness
- Abdominal pain, nausea, or digestive issues
- Neurological symptoms like headaches, seizures, or stroke-like episodes
- Family history of autoimmune conditions or unexplained childhood illnesses
Early testing is particularly important if symptoms began in early childhood and have been difficult to diagnose through conventional methods.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Child’s Future
Getting the right diagnosis early can transform your child’s health journey:
- Prevent Serious Complications: Early treatment can prevent stroke, organ damage, and permanent disability
- Personalised Treatment: Genetic confirmation enables targeted therapies rather than trial-and-error approaches
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns for future family planning decisions
- Peace of Mind: End the diagnostic odyssey and uncertainty about your child’s condition
- Improved Quality of Life: Proper management can significantly improve daily functioning and long-term outcomes
