Finding Answers for Your Child’s Health Journey
When you notice developmental concerns in your child, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our AGPS Gene Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 3 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity South African families need to understand rare genetic conditions affecting skeletal development. We understand the emotional weight of these health questions and are here to support you every step of the way.
Understanding the AGPS Gene Test
This specialised genetic test examines the AGPS gene using advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 3. This rare condition affects bone and cartilage development, particularly in the upper arms and thighs. Our testing provides definitive answers that can guide appropriate medical care and management strategies.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important for families who have noticed:
- Shortened upper arms and thighs in infants
- Joint stiffness or limited movement
- Facial features that appear distinctive
- Developmental delays in motor skills
- Family history of similar skeletal conditions
- Punctate calcifications seen on X-rays
If you’re in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, or anywhere in South Africa and have concerns about your child’s skeletal development, this test can provide the answers you need.
