This comprehensive NGS-based panel evaluates genes associated with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), a rare genetic disorder affecting growth, development, and multiple body systems. Metropolis Healthcare uses high-depth sequencing to detect pathogenic variants linked to both classic and atypical CdLS presentations. The test helps confirm diagnosis, guide clinical management, and support long-term care planning. A blood sample collected in an EDTA vial is required for analysis.
