Detail Description

FGF3 Gene Deafness - NGS Genetic DNA Test

FGF3 Gene Deafness is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development of the inner ear, resulting in congenital deafness, inner ear agenesis, microtia, and microdontia. It is caused by mutations in the FGF3 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that is essential for the development of the inner ear.

Symptoms of FGF3 Gene Deafness

The symptoms of FGF3 Gene Deafness can vary from person to person, but the most common symptoms include:

• Congenital deafness - the person is born without the ability to hear
• Inner ear agenesis - the inner ear does not develop properly
• Microtia - the outer ear is underdeveloped or absent
• Microdontia - abnormally small teeth

Diagnosis of FGF3 Gene Deafness

FGF3 Gene Deafness can be diagnosed through genetic testing. At DNA Labs India, we offer NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGF3 Gene Deafness. This test analyzes the FGF3 gene for mutations that can cause this disorder. The test is performed using a sample of blood or saliva, and the results are usually available within 2-3 weeks.

Cost of NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGF3 Gene Deafness

The cost of NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGF3 Gene Deafness at DNA Labs India is INR 20000. This includes the cost of the test, sample collection, and genetic counseling.

Conclusion

FGF3 Gene Deafness is a rare genetic disorder that can cause congenital deafness, inner ear agenesis, microtia, and microdontia. It can be diagnosed through genetic testing, and the cost of NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGF3 Gene Deafness at DNA Labs India is INR 20000. If you suspect that you or your child may have FGF3 Gene Deafness, we recommend consulting with a genetic counselor and getting tested as soon as possible.

Mutations in the FGF3 gene have been associated with a rare genetic disorder characterized by congenital deafness along with inner ear agenesis, microtia (underdeveloped external ear), and microdontia (small teeth). This condition affects the development of the auditory system and the structures of the ear.
