Find Answers for Familial Convulsions and Movement Disorders
When your family faces unexplained infantile convulsions or involuntary movements, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our PRRT2 gene test provides the clarity you need to understand these complex neurological conditions and take control of your family’s health journey.
Understanding the PRRT2 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to examine the PRRT2 gene, which plays a crucial role in brain function and nerve cell communication. When mutations occur in this gene, they can lead to familial infantile convulsions and paroxysmal choreoathetosis – conditions characterized by seizures in infancy and involuntary movement disorders later in life.
Our test provides precise detection of these genetic variations, offering families the answers they’ve been searching for through cutting-edge medical science.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Infantile convulsions or seizures in early childhood
- Involuntary, dance-like movements (choreoathetosis)
- Episodic movement disorders that come and go
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Unexplained developmental delays in children
Many South African families have found relief and direction through genetic testing, moving from uncertainty to actionable health information.
Why This Test Matters for Your Family’s Health
Early detection through PRRT2 gene testing offers significant benefits:
- Accurate Diagnosis: Move beyond symptom management to understanding the root cause
- Family Planning: Make informed decisions about future pregnancies
- Targeted Treatment: Work with neurologists to develop personalized management plans
- Peace of Mind: Reduce the anxiety of not knowing what’s causing symptoms
- Early Intervention: Implement strategies before symptoms become more severe
