Test Code RSCGP Nephrocalcinosis, Nephrolithiasis, and Renal Electrolyte Imbalance Gene Panel, Varies


Ordering Guidance


A next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel of the 6 genes associated with Bartter syndrome, a rare renal salt-wasting disorder, is available. See RBART / Bartter Syndrome Gene Panel, Varies. It is inappropriate to order both RBART and this test on the same patient because the genes on the RBART panel are included on this panel.

 

Testing for CASR is available individually. See CASRG / CASR Full Gene Sequencing with Deletion/Duplication, Varies.

 

With a few exceptions, this panel is focused on conditions where the primary phenotype is impaired osmoregulation that may result in secondary extrarenal symptoms. If interested in testing for syndromic disorders that are associated with kidney disease but feature broader clinical phenotypes and multisystem involvement, see NEPHP / Comprehensive Nephrology Gene Panel, Varies.

 

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

 

Customization of this panel and single gene analysis for any gene present on this panel are available. For more information, see CGPH / Custom Gene Panel, Hereditary, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies.
