| name | MLH1+MSH2+MSH6+PMS2 gene deletion+duplication and full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method | ||
| description | Gene mutations, deletion and duplication analysis is performed to confirm a clinical diagnosis of Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Genes known to cause HNPCC, including MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2, may be amplified by PCR methods and sequenced. Detection of copy number variations (deletions and duplications) may be performed by multiple-ligation-probe amplification assay (MLPA). | ||
