Take Control of Your Familial Health Journey
When cylindromatosis runs in your family, every skin growth can feel like a question mark. The uncertainty, the worry about your children’s future, the constant monitoring – we understand how overwhelming this hereditary condition can be. Our CYLD Gene Cylindromatosis NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you deserve, giving you the power to understand your genetic risk and make informed health decisions with confidence.
Understanding Your CYLD Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines the CYLD gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the gold standard in genetic testing. The CYLD gene acts as a tumour suppressor, and when mutations occur, it can lead to the development of multiple benign skin tumours called cylindromas. Our test doesn’t just identify if you have the mutation – it provides comprehensive information about your specific genetic profile, helping you and your healthcare team develop a personalised monitoring and management plan.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Multiple skin tumours or growths, especially on the scalp or face
- A family history of cylindromatosis or multiple skin tumours
- Early-onset skin lesions that concern you or your dermatologist
- Planning for pregnancy and concerned about passing genetic risks to children
- Unexplained skin conditions that haven’t responded to conventional treatments
Many South Africans with European ancestry may have higher risk factors, making this test particularly relevant for families across Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Knowing your genetic status provides profound benefits for your long-term wellbeing:
- Peace of Mind: Eliminate the uncertainty about your genetic risk and family planning decisions
- Proactive Monitoring: Establish appropriate screening schedules with your dermatologist
- Family Planning Confidence: Make informed decisions about having children with genetic counselling support
- Early Intervention: Detect and manage skin tumours before they become problematic
