Test Code LRCCZ Hereditary Leiomyomatosis and Renal Cell Cancer Syndrome, FH, Full Gene Analysis, Varies


Ordering Guidance


For a comprehensive hereditary cancer panel that includes the FH gene, consider ordering 1 of the following tests:

-ENDCP / Hereditary Endocrine Cancer Panel, Varies

-HPGLP / Hereditary Paraganglioma/Pheochromocytoma Panel, Varies

-RENCP / Hereditary Renal Cancer Panel, Varies

 

Testing for the FH gene as part of a customized panel is available. For more information see CGPH / Custom Gene Panel, Hereditary, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies.

 

Targeted testing for familial variants (also called site-specific or known mutations testing) is available for this gene. For more information see FMTT / Familial Variant, Targeted Testing, Varies. To obtain more information about this testing option, call 800-533-1710.

 

If the reason for testing indicates familial hypercholesterolemia, order FHRGP / Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Related Disorders Multi-Gene Panel, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies. If this test is ordered for familial hypercholesterolemia, LRCCZ will be canceled, and client will be notified and given the opportunity to order FHRGP as the appropriate test.
