Fanconi anemia is a rare inherited disorder that affects the body's ability to repair damaged DNA, leading to bone marrow failure and an increased risk of certain cancers. Carrier testing examines specific genetic changes associated with the condition, offering individuals a way to understand their genetic status and make informed decisions about their health and family planning.

About Fanconi Anemia Carrier Test | FA Carrier in Paramount

This test detects two mutations linked to Fanconi anemia, type C: IVS4+4A>T and 322delG.

The test analyzes a blood sample to determine whether a person carries one or both of these mutations in the FANCC gene. Carriers typically have one altered copy and do not develop the disorder, but they can pass the mutation to their children.

Individuals who inherit two mutated copies—one from each parent—are affected by Fanconi anemia, type C. The condition can cause progressive bone marrow failure, physical abnormalities, and a heightened risk of leukemia and other cancers.

Knowing carrier status is especially relevant for those with a family history of Fanconi anemia or for couples considering pregnancy. Genetic counseling can help interpret results and explain inheritance patterns.
