Understanding WDR35 Gene Testing: Your Family’s Health Security
When concerns about skeletal development conditions arise in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our WDR35 Gene Short-Rib Thoracic Dysplasia Type 7 genetic test provides the clarity and answers you need to make informed healthcare decisions for your loved ones. We understand the emotional weight of genetic testing, which is why we’ve created a compassionate, professional testing experience that puts your family’s wellbeing first.
What This Test Detects
The WDR35 gene test uses advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations in the WDR35 gene that are associated with Short-Rib Thoracic Dysplasia Type 7. This condition affects skeletal development, particularly rib and chest formation, and may include additional features like polydactyly (extra fingers or toes). Our test provides comprehensive analysis of this specific gene, giving you definitive information about genetic risks.
Who Should Consider This Test
This genetic test is particularly important for families experiencing:
- History of skeletal abnormalities in newborns or children
- Family members with diagnosed Short-Rib Thoracic Dysplasia
- Concerns about rib cage development or breathing difficulties in infants
- Family history of polydactyly (extra fingers or toes)
- Previous pregnancies with skeletal development concerns
- Planning for future pregnancies with genetic risk factors
If you’re in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, or anywhere in South Africa and have these concerns, our test can provide the answers you need.
