Hyper‑IgM Syndrome (HIGM): (CD40 [TNFRSF5] for HIGM3) (Known Mutation)

Clinical Use

Use

This test is intended for use when a specific known mutation in the CD40 (TNFRSF5) gene associated with Hyper‑IgM Syndrome type 3 has already been identified and documented by the ordering physician. It offers targeted sequencing of the coding region and flanking sequences to confirm or rule out the presence of that known familial mutation.

Special Instructions

Not provided.

Limitations

This test assesses only the specified known mutation in CD40 (TNFRSF5) and does not evaluate other possible mutations or regions; if the mutation cannot be documented, this test is not appropriate and a broader sequencing test (e.g., test 252432) should be ordered.
