Hemophilia C (Factor XI Deficiency), F11 Gene, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies

Clinical Use

Use

Evaluating factor XI deficiency (FXID) in patients with a personal or family history suggestive of FXID. Confirming an FXID diagnosis with the identification of known or suspected disease-causing alterations in the F11 gene. Determining the disease-causing alterations within the F11 gene to delineate the underlying molecular defect in a patient with a laboratory diagnosis of FXID. Identifying the causative alterations for genetic counseling purposes. Prognosis and risk assessment based on the genotype-phenotype correlations. Carrier testing for close family members of an individual with a diagnosis of FXID.

Special Instructions

Not provided.

Limitations

Next-generation sequencing may not detect all types of genomic variants. False-negative or false-positive results may occur. Technical limitations like regions of homology, high GC content, and repetitive sequences can affect test accuracy. This test is not designed to detect low levels of mosaicism or differentiate between somatic and germline variants. Negative results do not rule out the diagnosis of a genetic disorder. Deletions and duplications extending past the panel genes might not be reported. Confirmation of select reportable variants may depend on internal laboratory criteria.
