KIF1BP Gene Hirschsprung Disease NGS Genetic DNA Test
As a parent, watching your newborn struggle with digestive issues can be heartbreaking. When your baby experiences chronic constipation, abdominal swelling, or feeding difficulties, you deserve clear answers and a path forward. The KIF1BP Gene Hirschsprung Disease test provides the genetic clarity South African families need to make informed decisions about their child’s health.
Understanding Your Child’s Genetic Health
Hirschsprung disease is a serious condition where nerve cells are missing from parts of the intestine, causing severe digestive problems. The KIF1BP gene plays a crucial role in nerve cell development, and mutations in this gene can lead to this condition. Our advanced NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology examines this specific gene with exceptional accuracy, giving you reliable results you can trust for your child’s care.
Is This Test Right for Your Child?
This genetic test is essential if your newborn or child shows:
- Failure to pass meconium within 48 hours of birth
- Chronic constipation that doesn’t respond to treatment
- Abdominal distension or swelling
- Vomiting green or brown fluid
- Poor feeding or failure to thrive
- Family history of Hirschsprung disease
Early genetic testing can prevent months of uncertainty and provide the clarity needed for proper treatment planning.
