Understanding Your Infant’s Hemangioma: Genetic Answers for South African Families
When you notice a hemangioma on your baby’s skin, it’s natural to feel concerned and seek answers. As parents in South Africa, you deserve clear, reliable information about your child’s condition. Our ANTXR1 Gene Hemangioma Capillary Infantile NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the genetic clarity that can guide your family’s healthcare journey with confidence and peace of mind.
What This Test Reveals About Your Child’s Health
This specialised genetic test examines the ANTXR1 gene using advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. When mutations occur in this gene, they can lead to the development of capillary infantile hemangiomas – those familiar red birthmarks that appear on infants. Understanding the genetic basis helps determine whether the hemangioma is isolated or part of a broader genetic condition.
Our testing process is designed with South African families in mind, offering convenient sample collection options including blood, extracted DNA, or a simple blood drop on an FTA card. This flexibility ensures accessibility for families across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and throughout South Africa.
Is This Test Right for Your Family?
This genetic test is particularly important for South African families when:
- Your infant has developed multiple hemangiomas
- There’s a family history of hemangiomas or vascular conditions
- The hemangioma is large, rapidly growing, or in a concerning location
- You’re planning future pregnancies and want to understand recurrence risks
- Your paediatrician or dermatologist has recommended genetic testing
Many families from Pretoria to Durban have found that genetic testing provides the missing piece in understanding their child’s condition.
