Understanding Your Child’s Growth Journey: Silver-Russell Syndrome Genetic Testing
When your child faces unexplained growth challenges, feeding difficulties, or developmental delays, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. As parents, you deserve clear answers and a path forward. Our Chromosome 11p15 Silver-Russell Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive diagnosis you need to understand your child’s unique growth patterns and access the right support and treatment.
What This Test Reveals About Your Child’s Health
Silver-Russell Syndrome is a rare genetic condition primarily affecting growth, where children are typically born smaller than expected and continue to grow at a slower rate. Our advanced NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology specifically examines the critical region on chromosome 11p15, where genetic changes responsible for this syndrome occur. This isn’t just another test – it’s a comprehensive genetic investigation that provides the clarity families need to make informed healthcare decisions.
Is This Test Right for Your Child?
This genetic test is particularly important if your child shows:
- Unexplained growth delays or failure to thrive
- Feeding difficulties in infancy
- Distinctive facial features (triangular face, prominent forehead)
- Body asymmetry or limb length differences
- Developmental delays despite normal intelligence
- Family history of similar growth patterns
Early diagnosis can significantly improve outcomes by enabling targeted interventions and appropriate medical management.
