Invitae Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Panel
Use
Genetic testing for genes associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and cystic fibrosis, which result in respiratory diseases like tract infections, neonatal respiratory distress, and other lung complications. Manifestations may include situs inversus, abnormal sperm motility, and congenital absence of the vas deferens leading to male infertility. Ideal for individuals with clinical indications like chronic cough, rhinosinusitis, otitis media, and bronchiectasis.
Special Instructions

Limitations
>99% sensitivity and specificity for variants <15bp. May not detect structural rearrangements like inversions or phasing. Single-exon events may occasionally be missed. Sequence changes in promoter and non-coding regions not guaranteed unless specified. Analysis reflects extracted genomic DNA; rare external factors could affect representativeness of patient’s genome.
