Test Code: PNL076

Deafness, non-syndromic sensorineural autosomal dominant/recessive/X-linked/mitocondrial, classic

Rare Diseases
This panel analyses over 90 genes associated with non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss across autosomal dominant (DFNA), autosomal recessive (DFNB), X-linked (DFNX), and mitochondrial inheritance patterns. Key genes include GJB2, GJB6, SLC26A4, MYO15A, OTOF, TMC1, TMPRSS3, CDH23, USH1C, PCDH15, KCNQ4, COCH, TECTA, MYO7A, POU3F4, SMPX, and mtDNA variants. Genomic DNA is extracted from peripheral blood, enriched by capture-based target enrichment, and sequenced on an NGS platform with deletion/duplication analysis included. The panel is intended to establish a molecular diagnosis, determine the inheritance pattern for family counselling, and guide prognosis and management. Limitations include the inability to detect deep intronic variants, structural rearrangements, and low-level mosaicism.
Sample Type
