Overgrowth and Macrocephaly Syndromes Panel
Use
This test is designed for individuals who exhibit features suggestive of overgrowth and macrocephaly syndromes, or have a clinical or suspected diagnosis. The aim is to provide a molecular diagnosis to better guide cancer surveillance programs for these patients. Early and precise genetic diagnosis can significantly impact patient management and help tailor individual therapeutic approaches.
Special Instructions

Limitations
While the panel covers 112 genes associated with overgrowth and macrocephaly syndromes, genetic variants outside the captured targets cannot be detected. Limitations include potential lack of coverage due to technical failings, rare or novel variants outside of current datasets, and artifacts that may complicate CNV detection. Interpretation relies on current science, which is ever-evolving, meaning novel links or mutations could be missed.
