Understanding Your Child’s Health: EPG5 Vici Syndrome Genetic Testing
When your child faces developmental challenges or neurological symptoms, finding answers becomes your top priority. The EPG5 Gene Vici Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test offers South African families the clarity and certainty they need to make informed healthcare decisions for their children.
What This Test Detects
The EPG5 Gene Vici Syndrome test examines the EPG5 gene using advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. This sophisticated approach identifies mutations that may cause Vici Syndrome – a rare genetic disorder affecting multiple body systems. By analysing your child’s DNA from a simple blood sample or FTA card, we can provide definitive answers about this specific genetic condition.
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is particularly important for children showing:
- Unexplained developmental delays or regression
- Neurological symptoms including seizures or movement disorders
- Vision problems or cataracts at a young age
- Heart abnormalities detected in infancy or childhood
- Family history of similar symptoms or genetic conditions
- Multiple system involvement without clear diagnosis
If your child’s symptoms have been puzzling healthcare providers, this test can provide the missing piece to the diagnostic puzzle.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family
Getting answers through genetic testing provides numerous benefits:
- Peace of Mind: End the uncertainty and anxiety of not knowing what’s affecting your child
