Rare Diseases

Complete Exome

Complete Exome is a comprehensive test that analyzes all coding regions of human genes. This test is primarily used to diagnose rare and hereditary genetic disorders and provides detailed information about genetic variants that may be associated with various clinical conditions.

Overview

There are over 6,000 rare diseases affecting more than 300 million people worldwide.

Studies by the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism show that 80% of rare diseases have a genetic origin, meaning they are inherited from biological parents.

When Should You Consider This Test?

Consider this test in the following cases:

Patients with a family history of genetic diseases
To identify inherited mutations that may be causing the condition.
Patients with rare or complex genetic diseases
When a genetic condition is suspected but smaller genetic panels have not provided answers.
Children with developmental delays, cognitive impairments, or other clinical conditions suggesting a genetic origin.
Patients with undiagnosed symptoms
When other genetic tests have failed to provide a conclusive diagnosis.

Genes Analyzed

The exome covers approximately 20,000 human genes, focusing on coding regions—responsible for protein production. These regions represent about 1-2% of the genome but are where most disease-causing mutations occur.
