Sample Collection
No special preparation is required. Inform the healthcare provider about any medications or recent medical procedures. Genetic counseling is recommended prior to testing.
Method: Venipuncture or finger prick
Laboratory Analysis
A trained phlebotomist will collect a blood sample via venipuncture or a finger prick for FTA card collection. The process is quick and minimally invasive.
Report Delivery
Apply pressure to the puncture site to prevent bleeding. Resume normal activities immediately. Store the sample as instructed for stability.
Timeline: 3 to 4 weeks from sample receipt

Understanding Your Results
Pathogenic mutation detected
Increased genetic risk for hemangioma capillary infantile. Genetic counseling and clinical management recommended.
No pathogenic mutation detected
No genetic alteration found in the ANTXR1 gene. Clinical correlation advised for diagnosis and treatment.
Variant of uncertain significance (VUS)
Further testing or family studies may be needed. Consult a genetic counselor for guidance.
Consult a doctor if the hemangioma shows rapid growth, causes pain, bleeds, ulcerates, or affects vital functions like vision or breathing. Also, seek advice for genetic counseling if a mutation is detected.
Limitations
- ⚠Test may not detect all genetic variants or mutations
- ⚠Results require interpretation by a genetic counselor
- ⚠Not a standalone diagnostic tool; clinical correlation is essential
- ⚠Limited to ANTXR1 gene; other genetic factors may be involved
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risk from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
- ●Psychological impact of genetic results on family
- ●Potential for incidental findings unrelated to hemangioma
Interfering Factors
- ●Sample contamination during collection or processing
- ●Degraded DNA due to improper storage
- ●Use of incorrect sample container
- ●Recent blood transfusion affecting DNA quality
