Find Answers for Unexplained Swelling and Lymphatic Concerns
When your body shows signs that don’t make sense – persistent swelling, recurrent infections, or developmental concerns – it can be frightening and isolating. Our FAT4 Gene Hennekam Syndrome Test provides the clarity you need to understand these complex lymphatic conditions and take control of your health journey.
Understanding Your FAT4 Gene Test
The FAT4 gene plays a crucial role in developing your lymphatic system – the network that helps your body fight infection and maintain fluid balance. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to Hennekam lymphangiectasia-lymphedema syndrome type 2, causing swelling, intestinal problems, and developmental challenges.
Our Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your FAT4 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could be affecting your health.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained swelling in limbs or face (lymphedema)
- Recurrent infections despite good hygiene
- Digestive issues or poor nutrient absorption
- Developmental delays or intellectual disability
- Family history of similar lymphatic conditions
- Facial features associated with genetic syndromes
Many patients spend years searching for answers – our test can provide the clarity needed to move forward with confidence.
