Unit Code 88911:
Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD), Full Gene Analysis

Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful

Diagnosis of individuals suspected of having autosomal recessive

polycystic kidney disease

 

Carrier testing of individuals with a family history of autosomal recessive

polycystic kidney disease

Reflex Tests Lists test(s) that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial test(s)

 Unit Code  Reporting Name  Available Separately  Always Performed 
80333 Fibroblast Culture for Genetic Test Yes No
80334 Amniotic Fluid Culture/Genetic Test Yes No

Testing Algorithm Delineates situation(s) when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.

Note:  This testing algorithm only applies to prenatal

         testing.

If amniotic fluid (non-confluent cultured cells) is received,

amniotic fluid culture/genetic test will be added and charged

received, fibroblast culture for genetic test will be added and

charged separately.
